my question is: how can I find out what the network settings my computer
receives from dhcp? doesn't DHCP specify a DNS for lookups? how can I ind
out what it is?

The DNSes used to resolve comcast.net and the DNSes that Comcast
wants you, the user, to hit aren't necessarily the same thing.
(Actually, they're almost definitely NOT the same thing, if it's
anything like every ISP I've ever used. Which, admittedly, has never
been Comcast, or any other cable provider, but...)
