Edit -> Should have mentioned that I am on Blast.

Just noticed this on my monthly bill.

"Great news! We doubled the speed of your Blast! Internet
Service at no add’l cost. To complete your speed increase,
go to comcast.com/powercycle. You may need to upgrade your
modem; to confirm go to mydeviceinfo.comcast.net."

»comcast.com/powercycle ?? First time I have seen that site referenced as far as I recall.

Wow. I could hit your house with a rock, but I'm getting 49/8.5. Better ping though. What package and modem do you have?

Re: West Linn, OR

I got my Performance tier speed increase, apparently to around 20-21 Mbps down, 4.5 Mbps up. I gather that there's another slight bump to Performance download speed on the way (to 25).

I'm seeing 62/12 on Blast! in Groton, CT. Took like a month to get up to speed, but now that it is, it's FAST!

Pay for Comcast 50/10 residential, West Palm Beach FL. I got all mad when my internet died late Sunday night. Rather then call and ask what was going on, I decided to go to sleep and woke up to this:

Re: Littleton, CO

Just got the eMail today that my speed was increased 33% . . . to what I already have. When in all reality it was faster before all this. I don't care only if the price goes down to the price point for the speed I have. I'll give it a couple of days and see what happens before I call and talk to my tech. Have power cycled the modem and see no changes. . . yet.

Last October - 10/14/12:




04/12/13: Still no upgrade. Had 25-35/4.5-6, now have 19.86/3.42 (364ms):

I have had the new Blast speeds for a while now. I am getting roughly 55/11 now. For the last few months I was getting consistently 52/10. Yes this is minor, but it is a noticeable change.

Re: Littleton, CO

YES - THIS ^^^

Comcast tricked me into rebooting my modem for WORSE speeds.

Consistently got 25/4.

Now I get 22/4.

Nice screwjob by tricking me into rebooting into the new caps.

Just got an email from Comcast that Performance has been upgraded on 4-17 in Darien IL. We'll verify when I get home.
