They are coming out today to check it out but holey crap this is annoying. I half to click on everythign a billion times to get it to load.

Response boxes take about 30seconds to load...https sites fail....tryign to buy airline tickets and alll the pcs were timing out.

That sucks goose
On the bright side my downstream is now upgraded to 8 megabits down and the upstream is around 700 kbs (downstream is typically faster too) and my latency is pretty good.

damn you...



my network is running like crap. due to extreme measures, VoIP is actually flawless right now but everything else is dying

I had the same thing too. Called comcast and of course they thought I didn't know anything. Only when I yelled at them is when they arranged to send a tech down to the apartment to check it out. I gave em my cell number and arranged for a time when I'd be at home. Of course they came down the next day without calling me. He had to go out and fix something to make it work properly as it turns out.

I saw an overview of what you did to your network to get your VoIP to where it is now. I can see the Comcast tech taking one look at it and going "Uhhhh wtf is this?"

yeah...it is a problem with my node...it craps out and fubars the whatever diskobulator I think....the dude is coming to check it out today...they told me that a LONG time ago


Anyways, the last time a tech came out it was zippy, I was getting 6-8Mbps/s and everything.

Lately, pages take 20 seconds to load (at least) , AT is practically unbrowsable, and I get a consistent packet loss of about 25%

maybe you need to rice your modem. put on an ugly wing and slap it with some stickers. guaranteed to go 2mb/s faster.

and comcast sucks, i hear horror stories about them. good thing i have optimum

 

[Goosemaster]

see, now it is working better....it'll crap out in about a minute or too


such a waste
