I have just started with Comcast.  I am presently renting an Arris
TM402P for $7/mo.  I am looking to purchase my own modem.  Comcast
lists many compatible modems
(http://mydeviceinfo.comcast.net/mydev.php?tier=-1&h=0&d3=0&s=v&so=0&e=0&sc=536),
but it is clear that not all the listed units match what is needed.  I
assume that only units designated "Telephony" will be suitable, as I
am getting voice service through Comcast.  This restricts the choices
to Arris (23 units in the list, but if I lump NCS, IMS, and SIP
together, the count is 9.)

Questions:
What do the NCS , IMS and SIP designations mean?
What does the D3 column in the modem list mean?
None of these show support for IPV6.  Does this matter?
Any Linux-related issues with these units?  The Arris TM402 seems to
be working fine.

Thanks,
-Denis
