They were charging $10 extra for that speed for a little while. I guess they gave up on that.

heh, t'would be funny if you were able to pay more money that they would report you had a higher speed...

R3C · Post by **R3C** » Sat Apr 09, 2005 6:29 pm

I wonder if they still offer a higher tier at 5 or 6 Mbps or something.

Bill Drayton Jr. · Post by **Bill Drayton Jr.** » Sat Apr 09, 2005 6:33 pm

I think I was perusing their site and saw that you could get 5mbit a while back...maybe it's up to 6 now... the down is fine for me - I would prefer having like 1.5up though...

Looks like everyone is a comcast teleworker now...was an $80 a month charge before...

However if you do that small business thing you can get 7Mbit down and 768Kbit up...Installation is $250 and then $160 a month - static ip = $30 a month...

Post by **enderzero** » Sun Apr 10, 2005 11:52 pm

If any of them are around here maybe they can chime in with some real and theoretic numbars.

Those numbars are weak, compared to the mighty chubby cox!

Bill Drayton Jr. · Post by **Bill Drayton Jr.** » Tue Apr 12, 2005 7:01 pm

The same seems to happen here. Working ok today though...

It's the DNS servers. You can change them manually to other ones if it does that again. They seem to be fixed now though. Thank Rixler for the information...
