    No, the airport extreme can replace a router if you have one, but it can not replace the comcast cable modem - it doesn't have the necessary hardware to connect the cable line. This would be a great addition to your network though. You would plug your cable modem in to the airport extreme, and the airport extreme would share that connection to your desktop via a wired (or wireless) connection, as well as to your roku and visiters via the wifi.
