Unless their policies have changed in the last couple years, that's not the case. They will provide you with a switch/hub (at cost) and then charge you extra for a unique (dynamic) IP for each machine you intend to connect. It was an extra $5/mo as of ~5 years ago when I got my first router.

I don't believe I've ever seen anything in the Comcast TOS that prohibits NAT devices. In fact, I do believe Comcast will provide you a NAT box (at a cost) if you tell them you intend to hook up multiple machines to the cable modem. No virus found in this incoming message.
