They do not do CGNAT, as far as I know. (Fixed wired broadband should never be behind CGNAT, but that’s a topic for another thread :-) ) Should only apply if you are using Comcast’s CPE for NAT. I had Comcast service some time ago, using their rental CPE in bridged mode, and had no issues with third party SIP. Sent from my iPhone

Does this apply only to customers using their proprietary gateway or customers on a CGNAT service with them?
I have been a Comcast customer for years, with my own equipment, and have never had issues using Polycom SIP phones on RingCentral.
This is getting a little concerning for me as we are planning to roll out SIP phones direct to users at home soon.

I have an employee who has recently switched to Xfinity cable service. Ever since they switched their internet service their work phones will not stay registered for more than about 3 minutes.
These same phones have been used on many ISPs without issues. The same config has been used behind multiple levels of NAT without issues.
She was fine, until she switched to XFinity.
Of course, XFinity support is absolutely worthless.
Anyone from XFinity Tier 3 or such that might be able to offer assistance?
I suspect it's something stupid with either NAT overload in the modem or the modem not keeping the SIP channels open.
I've tried playing around with registration times without any success. And again, we've never had issues with these phones or this setup with any other ISP.
