Here is How to Replace a Comcast Modem with your Own, in 4 Easy Steps: Update: I’ve also written more broadly on how to get rid of your ISP modem rental fee (if you’re not a Comcast customer). Now, I am no longer paying the ridiculous $14 per month rental fee for a Comcast modem – and I want to share how you can do the same. Don’t let Comcast fool you – anyone can do this on their own. So, I decided to replace the Comcast-owned gateway, with my own, at a current cost savings of $168 per year. And, Xfinity is even using leased modems as WiFi hotspots ( but you can opt out). I hated seeing a device with a little “ Xfinity” logo on it sitting next to my computer. And, when you get a discount on your modem rental, it leaves you with little leverage to negotiate bigger discounts on the cost of the internet service. I had successfully tried the Comcast negotiation route before – but it’s easy to forget to call in to negotiate every 6 months or so.
