The name and password used for accessing Giganews, is different from the name and password used to access your Comcast e-mail account.
Did you first set up an account with Giganews?
Once that is done, they'll e-mail your account name and password, as well as the correct server address.
Their e-mail address is: comcast-support@giganews.com
