For source routing:
Add an entry to /etc/iproute2/rt_tables:
1000   Comcast_ip1

then (where 192.0.2.1 is the gateway and 192.0.2.2 is your IP address):
#ip route add table Comcast_ip1 default via 192.0.2.1 via eth1
#ip rule add priority 2000 from 192.0.2.2 table Comcast_ip1

Adjust to suit your needs.
