It's sporatic, AT is really slow, can't get to betanews, but can get to slashdot and google, only some sites seem to be down through comcast, but when I connect to my neighbor's router (through DSL) everything works.
 
Works for me too. (Currently 10:45 PM PST... haven't heard of any other maintenance they may have planned over here.)

Right, because it's not like the maintenance technicians actually have lives or families or anything.

While you are 100% correct, the maintenance techs don't set the time for maintenance. They just do the work. Management is actually be nice to the employees by not requiring them to get the fvck out of bed at 2am.

Comcast isn't a 100 person company, Nik. Chances are they have several shifts of maintenance and technical workers. You should know considering I think you used to work there.

A customer is bitching because it is pretty much the industry standard to do maintenance when the least users are effected. This is typically from 2AM to 6AM.

7PM on the West Coast is way too earlier. Many businesses rely on the internet and have SLA's for when they can have any downtime and how minimal it must be. I know that if I was at work and we lost the internet for 3 hours I'd be fvcking pissed and on the phone on someone's ass. My place of employment simply requires 8AM to 10PM internet connectivity, period. We've only lost it a few times during business hours, and I had to bitch about our SLA to get someone out there fast. It costs us business and creates unhappy customers to deal with.
