Re: Manual Registration Comcast High Speed Internet in Fedora 4

I am not sure what "not supporting Linux means". Probably that if you run into any problems they are not willing to listen to you if you say anything other than Windows or Mac. I use Cox, which is probably not much different than Comcast, in combination with Linux without any difficulty at all. I have never tried to get support from them with Linux but never really expected them to be helpful anyway. I just connected my Linux box to my wireless router (wired and unwired). It asked for and receive a DHCP address and I was in.

Cox came with an "install kit" too. I looked at it and threw it away. It had nothing valuable on it for any system, including Windows. I think it had IE6 and a pop-up blocker. Not even good Frisbee material. I don't know what the Comcast CD has. Take look.
