I had told Taz about my problems with comcast and as all of you know I have been sufferring with a bad case of packetloss-itis. Over the last few weeks. Since about Tuesday my connectivity to the internet is minimal to non existent. I have not been able to get on at all.

I currently have a trouble ticket in with comcast. They did come out once to verify my problem. The techs told me that the low part of the band is at 7 and is to weak for my modem to get a return. They said the line needs to be traced through out my neighborhood to determen where the weakest link is and to replace the faulty piece of equipment. It will take them about 3 days if I am lucky complete the neighborhood trace.

I am still waiting for the problem to be fixed. At this time I am unable to use the internet for any application.

Once it is fixed I will be back online.

I was able to post this message by using my mom's computer. I had to travel 100 miles to use her computer, and I had to use the dreaded AOL to do it.

The cool thing about it is that there is a definite problem and it will be fixed. Compare that to the many more who have problems but can't get their ISPs to fix them because the ISP says there isn't a problem.

Target, you n00b. You say the dreaded AOL, but you subscribe to AOL by using comcast!!

AOL's High speed used to be called RoadRunner (because AOL and Warner Brothers merged. WB owned the rights to the cartoon character RoadRunner -- you must know, the fast bird that the coyote could never catch). Comcast purchased RoadRunner. So you have AOL. Sucks for you and all of you other IDIOTS!! :p

PS. DSL ROX0RES YOUR B0X0RES.

FIOS is hitting the area and with any luck it will be at my door soon.
:lol:

I am glad they got to the bottom of your problem or atleast they are looking for it.
We have been telling you for weeks/months your ISP is messed up in your area. Cable should have a way better stable connection then what you was having.. Good Job BT!!

Where'd you say you lived again? Valley of the old people (who never get on the internet because they don't even know what it is)?
No wonder DSL is working out for ya...

I had DSL here for a bit, and at first it was great.. then it suddenly went to crap... so I switched to cable and have been happier ever since.

It sure does. I don't have problems with DSL at all. Though, I would like to have FIOS. It is going to cause serious trouble for the cable modem industry. Oh, yeah, and DSL is cheaper too. You know what, BT, Mav's right: You are a N00B! :D :p

Listen up n00bert. Have you EVER been to Miami? You'll soon realize that old people DON'T move to MIAMI. They move to places like Naples, Fort Myers, Tampa, Orlando.

DSL is more stable, and I don't give my $ away to $ whores like AOL/Comcast. So you keep on selling your soul to the devil. I'll stick with Covad, pay a premium price and get a premium product with the best Customer Service and Support of any company I've ever dealt with, EVER.

Nope, never been to Miami.

Mebbe Covad is a good company... but I was with Bellsouth, and they weren't.
Oh, and I pay $35/month for my cable... my DSL was costing me $50.

Cable IS cheaper than DSL, I understand and know this. I was with Bellsouth for 2 years and they wouldn't help me where Covad would. Bellsouth is the Devil. Covad owns you.

Currently, where I live DSL is cheaper than Cable. I am paying just under $32 a month for 1.5Mbit DL and 386kbit UL. Pretty durn good if you ask me. Oh, yeah, and no reduced speed based on network traffic in my area.
