Can I Access Comcast's email? I am totally clueless tecnologically. I was wondering if I would be able to check my email since I have comcast.net...or would I have to create a new email address using a more internet-based email server like Hotmail?

As long as Comcast allows POP or IMAP access, you'll be able to access it on this device directly. If not, all you have to do is go to comcast.net, click "Mail", log in and view your email via their web page. I have a Comcast account too, and I just verified it works fine. Good luck.

I can scan and email with no problem. I don't see any link to email files via this amazon. If you provide other source without a problem.

Comcast connects via the phone lines, and I found out the hard way that this modem does not have a port in the back to connect a phone line... I got a netgear modem and netgear router for wifi... They work great!

I ditched the router rental from my Internet/TV/Phone provider which was $10/month. I'm no expert, but routers are routers and if your Comcast router connects through a CAT5/RJ40 connector it should work. I have no experience with anything Comcast except: I went from Comcast to another provider due to poor service. I called & emailed my ISP and told them I wanted to save some money. They provided me with instructions on where to return to return my old router and save $$$. I configured the router after downloading/reading the user manual.

for me, i just had to connect it to my cable like it was connected. Xfinity website loads and it will automatically read the info off the modem, register it, and even update the firmware for comcast. its done automatically, takes about 10 minutes, and i did NOT have to call them!

Hi Duke10, since the Internet TV has a browser, you may access your email. -Vincent

Why does it say it offers email and instant messaging services if there's no wi-fi?I'm wondering because I used to have a phone that accessed my email through some other way than the internet. I was never charged for internet service, but it was instead treated (billing-wise) as a text message. I've been trying to find something like that ever since, with no success so far. So, if there's no wi-fi, does it access email??

I recently bought one of these for my mom. It's one of the best uses of technology I've seen. I highly recommend it, especially for folks who can't get their email by conventional means. My mother looks forward to every email.

I do not have Comcast, but up to now this Netgear was the best I had and it is compatible with all the routers I tested, in my house and in friends house.

You access your email in exactly the same way you do with your favorite internet browser, for example Firefox, I. Explorer, Google Chrome etc. This device is a fully functional PC, so you may install other email clients as well, such as Outlook, Thunderbird, etc.

I just installed one in Minneapolis on Saturday. Comcast does not offer the pick-up service yet - they have to send a tech out. Some things to note: -The tech (who was otherwise very competent) had never seen anything like this before. Do your research and be prepared to have an audience while YOU install everything.-The basic install instructions are crap. Go to the Ceton Diagnostic tool for the local host information (what they use to activate the cable card). -I don't know if it's the InfiniTV or the Comcast signal, but I've had some problems getting all 4 tuners working. I'll try to update this with any resolution I achieve. I just installed one in Minneapolis on Saturday. Comcast does not offer the pick-up service yet - they have to send a tech out.

call comcast first. They are the worst internet provider but they are the only one that service my area. A couple months after I got this router, I lost connection to my house. Comcast had to come out and run a new line. So, I'm not sure if it was the router but my service is worse than before.

I would tell you but it seems like a waste of time when you already know what to do. Sorry just giving you a hard time. I actually didn't do it. Comcast came by on a service call and installed it without me asking them. Would have been ok if they had done what i actually asked them.

Its just a modem - you'll have to get a separate router. Unlike what comcast provides which is a dual purpose modem/router.

I have been having trouble using IE but it seems to work with Google Chrome. I called HP but support does not seem to be able to understand me and I am having problems understanding them. I have called them seven or eight time for help and still have no luck with them. I also have problems with using Windows Live Mail on the Envy, I have six email addresses and can only get it to take one. I also have an HP Pavilion Entertainment PC using windows 8.1 pro and a HP desk top with windows 7 pro. The envy is the only one I can't get to work with live mail I can use Chrome and others but I like windows live, have been using it for years.
