With Comcast, you can disable the public Wi-Fi on your end (just log in) and you can also ask them to put your cable modem into "bridge mode", to use with your own router, but to get static IPs you need your router in router mode and it will get a dynamic IP and the static IPs.

I was sick of the way that Comcast prices creep up so I switched away anyway.

The modem they currently use actually reenables the Xfinity hotspot when I turn bridge mode on. It’s infuriating.

Yikes. I wonder if you can get it replaced with the business gateway without wifi.

Open case, remove wifi chipset or at least the antennas?

Maybe easier to wrap it in foil/put it inside a metal box/trash can? Warranty/service terms: intact.
