Funny this thread should come about while im having big trouble with Comcrap. I used to love them, maybe i still do . But now right now... This is after they came out twice to repair/diagnose. Over the phone the first couple times they easily resolved it, it came back so called someone in. Guy did absolutely nothing. Called again, lady on the phone did a test and said "i see serious problems, i am surprised you have not called much earlier." She had someone come out again an this dude tried a bit harder , added an amplifier to our lines and took off. This took me down to 1200ms ping from 1600. Now, im back to the 1600. The server i am pinging is maybe 30 miles away... just not right. Tried again on the phone, lady says "im sending 50, and.... received 50 . I see no problem here." They send someone out again, who did nothing to fix it. Again. Oh yeah, by the way- the 2.7 down speed is a bit better than the .5-1.0 speeds i was seeing.
This is a huge annoyance as my job requires tons of high res photo uploading and lots of internet use and i can be on my office machine for upto 10 hours a day. Used to have 10-20 tabs open all the time, i'm probably better off with my sprint wireless card.
