• The supplied power cube plugs into the most common USA power outlet.

* Data throughput will be reduced by network overhead. Delivered data speeds are also dependent upon the configuration and capacity of the data-over-cable service on which the B12 1 is used.

** This cable modem does not have a built-in wireless router and does not have telephone jacks for support of voice phone calls.

Yes this is a bridge modem meaning it does not have WiFi built-in.

Any WiFi router with an ethernet input is compatible, which is the vast majority.

No, this modem only supports coax based cable interenet.  Coax cable is the same cable that plugs into the antenna port of a tv.

Depends on your internet provider.  Xfinity uses an app for setup while most other providers use a dedicated web page in your account. If all else fails, all providers can add your modem over the phone.
