To work around issues with Comcast, put in a router with ARP proxy and
firewall.

Then you can treat the devices on the outside of the firewall as hostile
and not part of your network, and everything inside the proxy/firewall
is "safe" and can be managed by you.

This works also with Comcast's brain-dead SMC devices that they use for
commercial customers.
