August 4, 2009: Only had a slowdown for about a day and a half so far this year. In fact the whole neighborhood was affected. Noticed a few Comcast cable trucks working on the poles and afterwards everything was back up to speed.
September 26, 2008: Haven't had any outages so far this year. Still working great.
July 2, 2008: Comcast is still working great.
Dec. 17, 2007: Still great connnectivity.
May 10, 2007: Purchased the Linksys Cable Modem last November to do away with the monthly rental charge. Still great connectivity and speeds.
August 15, 2006: Comcast service has been excellent during the past eleven months. Has always been holding steady with download and upload speeds.
Sept. 20, 2005: The Verizon DSL modem just wouldn't sync up with Verizons equipment. Phone tech was to come out last week but never showed up. Meanwhile the clock was ticking on my thirty day money back guarantee so I cancelled and returned the self-install kit.
Odd, Comcast has been holding steady with instant connections and fast downloads during this time. Looks like I am stuck with Comcast.
August 30, 2005: Comcast has been down about seven times in the past two months. Between that and still the price, I have ordered Verizon's new $14.95 a month plan this morning. True, it does come with a slower speed. But I don't really need the higher speed at Comcast's higher price.
June 3, 2005: Have been happy with Comcast except for the price.
However, after talking to a Verzion cable repairman last week, I was informed that Verizon's DSL is now available in my area. Being on a fixed income, I am considering changing over to Verizon.
May 4, 2004: Have been pleased with Comcast. The only down time that I noticed was just yesterday morning which only lasted about thirty minutes.
July, 2003: After I moved to this area, I was to far away from the CO to continue using Verizon's DSL service.
Comcast was out on July 10 and had provided a line and a Toshiba PCX1100 modem after I had called the day before. After failing to got the Comcast CD installed, I called support and a gentleman in Ohio walked me thru the installation without using the CD. Was on line that afternoon.
Noticed that my BI firewall was being scanned and probed often but putting my Linksys router on line put a stop to that.
Have had good up-time with Comcast. Am paying more for broadband than I did for DSL but this is better than dial-up.
