“Does this connect via WiFi? I REALLY don’t want to pull cables when WiFi is available. It would be for a Comcast/Xfinity service to what looks like will have to be a modem connected to a separate WiFi router.”

No. This model connects to your router or in-wall Ethernet jack (etc., etc.) using the provided ethernet cable. The Tel line out (on the Ooma) would simply plug into your compatible landline phone of choice, OR via the pre-existing telephone wiring/jacks in your home (that have been decommissioned by the TelCo, including the TelCo access point from the utility pole).** **Note: That’s assuming it isn’t a birdsnest of splices in the walls/attic, and assuring it will not exceed the Ooma’s limits/specs. Hope that makes sense and helps.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, it works with Wi-Fi. I use it with Spectrum.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Does not connect via Wi-Fi so needs hard wire connection to your router. However if you have (old) remote wireless phones and answering machine, the Ooma and your answering machine base station can be located next to the router (again hard wired) and the remote handsets can be anywhere within range.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.There are cables for the cheaper version. The more expensive one I believe is wireless.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No. It needs to connect via Ethernet. You should be able to use a WiFi mesh extender and connect to this without having to pull cables. Check with extender company
