Thanks, Megan FWIW, even if the problem(s) you are experiencing are a "Comcast problem" (and I have seen no compelling evidence that either your problem or the OP's problem are a "Comcast problem"), the fact that you have hijacked this thread may very well have lessened your chances of getting a resolution. It is possible that jlivingood (who started out trying to help the OP), may not have even noticed that you are not just the OP (who started out as an anonymous poster) using a different anonymous name (that does happen in these forums). Sometimes when a different anonymous user hijacks a thread, those trying to help don't always notice that there are actually two separate subthreads being discussed (and the solution to both problems may or may not be the same).
Hint: If you want help, and don't want to create confusion, start your own thread to minimize the confusion factor. -- We can never have enough of nature. We need to witness our own limits transgressed, and some life pasturing freely where we never wander. |

Thanks and again I am sorry - Megan There is nothing to apologize for; my suggestion that you need your own thread was for your benefit; it was not a rebuke.
I was just trying to explain that just because you seem to have a similar symptom to the OP does not mean that you have "exactly the same problem", and therefore, a fix for one poster's problem may not be a fix for all posters with similar symptoms.
It is just always a good idea to start your own thread when requesting help. This is especially so when you and the OP post anonymously, since it is not that unusual for anonymous posters to change their "identity" during the life of a thread, and someone trying to help may just assume that similar (but different) symptoms are being reported by the same poster.
FWIW, the reason that I keep emphasizing that you and the OP may not have the "exactly the same problem", is illustrated in the traceroute results shown below:

In the above traceroutes to the OP's problematic site, and to your problematic sites, I do not see any hops using your favorite culprit (tinet.net). I do see a common transatlantic hop using Level 3 (64.209.97.13 or 64.209.107.53 and 204.245.39.158), and all of the sites go through oneandone.net routers from my Comcast connection, but traceroutes from other locations will be different. -- We can never have enough of nature.

 | Hi Folks, and thanks very much for all the input... I've learned quite a few things from all of your posts! Although my original post was "anonymous," I promptly enrolled afterwards, and wanted to originally, but honestly couldn't quickly find out how to register.
This really is a dilemma for any Comcast subscriber who has trouble accessing certain European web sites. And also a catch-22 for us; unless Comcast decides to apply its know-how and leverage, we affected subscribers are but lone voices in the wilderness.
So when Imagnu entreats "J Livingood" from Comcast (as I have) to please see if it can be rectifed, I see it as both understandable and proper. Right now it's Sunday afternoon and I'd love to interact on the forum at autodejavel.fr; I have some photos from a car show to upload, but the site is again intermittently slow, up, and down.
So again, please - Comcast please fix this! Thanks again, Peter a/k/a Checkerboard |

So again, please - Comcast please fix this! Thanks again, Peter a/k/a Checkerboard OTOH, trying to steer jlivingood toward an interface problem with tinet.net may possibly delay a resolution, since the tinet.net interface is not used by all Comcast connections to either your hosting service in Germany, or Imaginu's hosting service in the UK.
Since this thread started, I have accessed both your problematic site, and Imaginu's problematic site, and (as you have pointed out) sometimes an http connection works reasonably well, and sometimes an http session hangs busy for a very long time. But even when the http connection is hung, the traceroute transit times to both sites (from my location) are essentially unchanged.
After trying the same thing from both an AT&T and an Earthlink connection, my experience is that the extreme delays/hangs do appear to be Comcast connection specific. But with the raw transit times being unchanged during "good" and "bad" connection attempts, a resolution is probably not going to be easy or fast. -- We can never have enough of nature.

 | reply to NormanS I've seen oneandone use TINET, GLBX and Level 3 networks in this thread from traceroute examples through different providers. The common problem areas is GLBX and it appears to be congestion/loss on GLBX overseas links. Oneandone can correct this through BGP techniques or by not using GLBX.
While NetFixer has stated "extreme delays/hangs do appear to be Comcast connection specific", this problem would be noticed on any ISP that Oneandone is reaching via GLBX.
Here is a graphic for oneandone's transit connectivity »bgp.he.net/AS8560#_graph4 |

Yes, but that doesn't seem very likely, and it could just be high latency links, since we don't know the method of connection (not satellite I hope). |
