I've been contracting for Comcast for about 7 years. I THOUGHT I had installed a couple of customer-owned MTAs, but I may have just dreamed it. Is there such a thing as an MTA that can be purchased from a retailer by the customer? Web searches and Comcast FAQ & HELP pages are virtually useless. My dad finally decided to do the triple play thing, but, being the penny-pincher he is, he doesn't want to pay the rental fee for the device. The install/porting date is next week, Jan. 24ish, so any advice before that date will be appreciated!
