I concur with Bob. I've had Comcast before (though, I always used my own
device - connecting to a DOCSIS-to-Ethernet bridge/Cable Modem). I've
never had success using a consumer-grade router, unless it had DD-WRT or
OpenWRT installed, or I used a Linux server. Some D-Link devices permit
forwarding of protocols other than TCP/UDP, select the 'Other' option,
and place the number 4 in the box for IPENCAP.
Exactly my feelings. When I had a comcast "business" class circuit, the
crap-tastic SMC router they gave me would fall on its face constantly
and I'd have to hard power it.
Now I have a residential circuit and I went out and bought a $45
modem-only and used a NetBSD box to do my routing and NAT.
Sure beats paying comcast $10/mo for renting crap.
