They suggested that I either put all the stuff behind a router or get home networking. I opted for home networking simply for the extra speed. They didn't come out and do anything. Nothing changed except that my speed went up and they give me 5 ip's.
I have been on the cable modem thing for a long time (since the beginning). When ALL of my buddies were getting killed by low DSL speed's and crappy DSL service my cable modem connection just worked perfect. It still is.
Go comcast go !!UP that speed!!!

I couldn't agree more. They can't even deliver 3/.256 consistently.
In a few areas that is true, but looking at the speed test archive it looks like they do a good job of offering 3/256 speeds to a great deal of customers. It does suck though if you are in one of the areas where the 3/256 cap is just a fantasy.

We (LB DSL) have just launched an ADSL product that does NOT require voice service, we can provide this ANYwhere we currently offer ADSL (43 states).

Yes the cost is more then our line share products, because we have to pay the ILEC for the copper. Yes the install is more, because it MUST be a pro-install, since the line is brand new.

We have launched one speed right now 1.5/384 with faster speeds coming in late summer.

Here is some basic info »NEW ADSL option, without voice service

Now, lets get back on topic of Cable 4mbps

That is, as you may know, merely a capacity problem in your immediate neighborhood. Comcrap can & will deploy more capacity if users in your region complain. Start complaining. Thoughput depressions like the one you describe are often caused by a small number (2-10) of identifiable users (read: neighbors) who are file trading.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,10608796 Fri, 25 Jun 2004 16:40:01 EDT Re: 4Mbps http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,10608750 jap :

"dry" ADSL is here ;)
"here" where? I'm in NH (one of the supposedly "dry" DSL regions) and all the media scuttlebutt sez it's here, but Verizon sez it's not - nor do they "know" anything about it. For now it's hogwash unless you *already* have wet DSL and want to migrate your hardline voice to Verizon's wireless service. That's not dry DSL, that's swap your hardline for our mobile service *contract* because that's how Verizon can stem the loss of customers.

For people like me who were forced to drop Verizon-everything *specifically* because they refused to unbundle are now locked into other-mobile + other-compconnect services. Verizon continues to really fock up this aspect of their business.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,10608750 Fri, 25 Jun 2004 16:35:19 EDT Re: 4Mbps http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,10608667 anon : Although I think its awesome that you're doing that, $65/month is too much in my book for 1.5/.4. If the prices were the same as the ones requiring a land line, then I'd seriously consider it.

At that price its cheaper for me to get a landline and get the cheapest metered service, which typically amounts to ~$15/month after taxes.

Is the $100 install as well as $100 modem required??]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,10608667 Fri, 25 Jun 2004 16:25:54 EDT Re: 4Mbps http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,10608174 LBDSL :
