There is a high likelihood that this thread is multiple issues. 1) New infrastructure since Comcast came in (Thread start in June). 2) Several isolated problems since then.

In general, it is probably good to start a new thread for an issue after several months have gone by. The data could be a completely different issue than the one you are having if you see large gaps in the discussion.

FWIW, "The internet is slow|broken" is not very helpful. Pings and traceroutes are. »Comcast High Speed Internet FAQ »How To Get Help!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19188714 Wed, 03 Oct 2007 10:18:22 EDT Re: [TWC] Roadrunner (?comcast) houston - unstable/intermittent/ http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19186908 MysticGogeta : Don't know I really dislike comcast its a heck of a lot worse then when TWC was here.

I have seen some modems (mostly Ambits) not get Powerboost or new speeds due to incorrect config file updates. They may also have to reprovision your modem if the headend doesn't want to update the modem.

i had posted that i was having trouble with my connection from taylor lake village.

i went ahead and tried my connection without my Linksys router(WRT54G) and it was back to FAST speeds.

something up with the new comcast service and linksys routers???? about to try my belkin router out.

numerous tests showed that after a few minutes... the linksys just craps out and my tests run down to ~300kbps whereas a direct connection to my modem is getting ~6000kbps.

i suggest giving this a try]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18779097 Mon, 30 Jul 2007 21:57:44 EDT Re: [TWC] Roadrunner (?comcast) houston - unstable/intermittent/ http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18771470 anon : I am in The Woodlands and since the transfer it seems my speeds have dropped to about half or more of what they were before the transfer.

Just talked to comcast support and they said 2100 kbps, which was the speed I tested at at the testsites they recommended, was in the standard range.

Could anyone else in the woodlands please post their speed to see if its my issue or a wider problem?

Comcast took the SMTP (outgoing e-mail) server offline without any priot notice. This is unacceptable to me. I am waiting for my Uverse installation so I can dump Crapcast.
I wonder...
So I try Telnet:
Comcast isn't blocking my connection to their SMTP Message Submission Server. Well, not until I try to use it (they won't let me use it because I am not a Comcast customer). OTOH, I don't know how they are authenticating former Road Runner customers in transition to Comcast, but without a Comcast email address. I imagine that is an administrative nightmare.

OTOH, somebody identified the Road Runner Message Submission Server as, 'houston.rr.com'. I get a long delay, then a connection failed error when I try Telnet to that server:
There is something at that IP address, using that host name, but:
That is the proper response from a Message Submission Server which is not SMTP AUTH (as the Comcast MS servers are), but limiting connection only to a local IP address. My IP address is not Road Runner, and thus not local to Road Runner.

Your area is supposedly changing over to Road Runner. You need to figure out which of the Message Submission Servers you are supposed to be using: Comcast, or Road Runner.

The 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx' is important information. Without it, all that anybody can do is offer a guess at what is happening.

Houston is in transition from Road Runner to Comcast. I seriously doubt that Road Runner wants to allow Comcast customers to use their mail servers. But you aren't getting a connection refusal in your mail client when attempting to submit the message, just a Delivery Failure Notice after you successfully submitted the message.

Who answers when you call support (i.e., Comcast, or Road Runner)?

Whose IP address are you assigned for your Internet connection (i.e., Comcast, or Road Runner)?

Have you ever received a transition email telling you to replace your Road Runner email address with a Comcast email address?

Now it's up but it feels very slow, but when I do a speed test, this is what I get.

I have been experiencing this for two weeks now ever since June 25 and I just found out that my next door neighbor is experiencing the same thing. The modem will be on for 10 minutes, and then down for 10-15 mins. The connection seems to be better at night.

For the past two days, it seems like it's getting better. The connection will be on, and then down for about two minutes, and back on for 10-15.

I have called Comcast about this. They did a scan of my modem and said that the connection is only 80%. And is sending someone over to look at it which means I'll have to be home to wait for him/her instead of being at work.

The only other explanation aside from the changeover from Time-Warner is the recent rainy weather that we had for the past two weeks. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18649186 Tue, 10 Jul 2007 22:32:06 EDT Re: [TWC] Roadrunner (?comcast) houston - unstable/intermittent/ http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18569865 MysticGogeta : I'm from Houston also (I still claim were Road Runner cause we still have the IP) Having no problems in my area but try to fill out all the info from this faq and post it here please.

Comcast has just taken over (happeing now) Time warner cable whose Road runner dsl high spped internet i am subcribed to. never had any problems such as this before (since before yesterday) and wondering if this is an effect of the transition.. what ever the case, am i the only person experiencing this?

its unlikely a hardware issue on my side. will wait a little more then call tech guys at their end.. in my experience, more often than not its an exercise in futility and takes more effort than than it really should to resolve even the simplest of things.

dsl report - latency 68ms, 517 dl/ 39 ul.

anybody else with similar problems?
any suggestions would be much appreciated.
