If you look at the far right device you see a non-EOL SB6121. The one on the left that is EOL is the leased one, and the retail one is still allowed. I'm not sure if you have a leased device or retail device.



I had a purchased SB6121 that they wouldn’t let me move with 2 months ago. It’s not just leased ones. They will support it until you need to make any changes, then will make you use a “supported” one.


Is there any technical difference between the two?


Technically, one makes money for Comcast.


I own it, but Comcast often thinks it's one of theirs. It annoys me to no end. Obviously their inventory management stinks.
