I still have the Comcast cable modem for Internet. Runs me about 30 bucks a month. And that of course enables Netflix and any other streaming services that might come up. I’ve never used Amazon or Hulu or any of the others, but certainly might if and when my financial situation improves.

I apologize for not being clear. I know all that.

My question was specifically about the cable connection that the Comcast cable TV service Box/DVR is plugged into. is this connection different from internet only connection points? I have a few other cable connections elsewhere in the house.

In other words, are all cable TV service wall coax connections good for either internet or TV?
That is, all that is necessary for a coax connection to receive TV is a TV box from Comcast? And Netflix, etc needs no Comcast box at all?

Ah, sorry.

Yeah, my coax from the cable box goes right into the router. No additional wires or anything needed.

Netflix, etc. needs no Comcast box at all. My TV has a “Netflix” button right on the remote control, which is kind of neat, but even if you don’t have that, most TVs now have it so that you can get to it on the screen via your remote. Same for all the other services (that I’m aware of).
