For Internet access, sure. But ISPs also have value added protection services 
and this part of an optional content filtering service that is integrated into 
the leased Comcast gateways. Users can turn on things like parental controls, 
including time limit and time-of-day boundaries for certain devices (e.g. cut 
off kid's game console Internet access at midnight on school nights). See
