Internet and phone on cable..

Possibly, You might get a DOCIS 3.0 modem. Internet and phone. Similar to the Motorola 'Surfboard'

The router goes in-between the cable modem and computers

Check with Comcast

Read the post halfway thru, Comcast is changing to a All-In-One device (Modem-Router)

the VOIP is built in to the modem, just plug the phone into it and your done. You have to transfer your phone number and you'd loose your existing POTS account.

cable - modem - Phone - router - Computer - Computer

• Transfer? Does that mean i keep the same number? And if so, why would that "disable" my existing account?

Other than my dumb question above, it is all clear and very encouraging. Most especially that the router is integrated. Thanks.

Assuming that your existing POTS line is with another carrier. Comcast does not have POTS.

Yes, you could. Our ooma (VOIP) service charge $40 to port the number from AT&T.

Because we don't have to pay AT&T for the POTS/DSL anymore, but still have to pay for the fiber internet. They are different accounts in same company.

Your situations might be different.

Most definitely; i am paying about $48/mo to Qwest for POTS.

I was paying that to Verizon, ten years ago. Two lines, one got dumped for a cable modem and the other for a pair of cell phones; saved some money on each and got better service each time.

We are paying less than that for 11Mb/s down 1.5Mb/s up fiber (ATT Uverse). We are paying $35 now and $45 later, after the promotion.
