Re: Gives False Hope of a Faster Connection said by RadioDoc:Comcast advertises almost exclusively on speed, so it is natural for them to try to rig the results of speed tests. Comcast doesn't need to "rig" any speed tests to show its faster than DSL. |

1 edit | Who said anything about "faster than DSL"? They can't compete on price so they come up with some ethereal product attribute to concentrate on--"highspeed"--which means nothing. Then they use it to differentiate themselves. It's classic marketing.
But now that you mention it, they can't seem to break 4 megabits in this system, and my DSL is 50% faster than that, with twice their 384 kbps upload. So I laugh every time I see those commercials.

| How is it a scam? Does it only work on the speed tests?
No, you benefit from the higher speeds, so what's the problem?
I assume you are one of those who refer to the multi-product discount as a penalty correct? |
