If your PC has a network port, then you could plug the supplied network cable in to Ethernet port. But if your intentions are for more that one computer that are wireless like phone/Tables/Laptops, then you need to purchase a separate wireless router to plug into the Ethernet port.

This is modem/land line modem only. You'll need to buy wireless router separately.

SSID is for wifi. The Netgear CM500V does not have built in wifi. It is an EMT (telephone) modem. It does the internet and telephone.

Just plug your computer in and get it provisioned by Comcast. Then connect your router to it and your computers to the router.

This is not a router/modem combo. You'll need to buy a separate router if you need WIFI feature.
