I would take the easiest way: tell them whatever BS they need to hear to 
be satisfied; then operate however you like without restriction. Dump 
Comcast at the soonest opportunity.

I would not waste my time with lawyers, letters, phone calls, 
explanations, etc. As Mark Twain said: Never argue with an idiot; they 
will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. This is 
similar to dealing with corporate bureaucracy.
