pitbull lies again, well i wouldnt say lies there is a program that you can download and run and it will register your modem for you.. however it installs some Comcast help program or something but thats easily removeable via the add remove programs menu... Let me see if i can find the link again.. Ok just talked to Comcast basically what you have to do is whenever you get your new modem connect it directly to your computer and then open IE or Firefox or whatever browser you use.. Click on the link that appears on the page, and it should download a file.. Run that file and then you can do your registration via that program..

HEHEHE quotes work wonders

pitbull lies it only took me 30 minutes to get my difference once i called and upgraded... it also helps if you re-register your modem through Comcast... :::..

When and where did you hear that they were upgrading the 6Mbps tier to 8Mbps if you have a link that would be awesome... also is the upload going to be increased as well? *EDIT* Nevermind just found the article... http://www.cmcsk.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=147565&p=irol-newsArticle&t=Regular&id=729042& looks like its not coming to florida till the end of summer

:biggun:

like a pitbull in the night when you tick it off

LOL that was pretty random

Someone said somewhere that they were upgrading the gold tier internet users to 15 mbits or something is that true?

Yeah... Finally LMAO i spent like 2 hrs on the phone with the tech ppl trying to get it figured out... Basically all they said was that I just had to re-register my modem and that they would send out a new bootfile for the modem...

Yeah I did get a new modem as well here are the new frequencies...

Ok got my connection fixed... Also got a brand new surfboard modem. :::..

On the phone with a tech right now he said it doesnt look like the modem upgraded itself so he is going to see what he can do. It has only been going on for about 2 or 3 days, so its not really a big deal, and I have my neighborhood rep coming out tomorrow with a surfboard modem so I can get rid of this pos RCA modem. Thanks for the suggestions.

Calling now

Negative^ its on a bridged wired connection... which is why i'm a bit pissed

Here are my frequencies

Ok here is my frequency settings What do you guys think?

Ok cool I have a POS RCA that they gave to me I'm requesting a surfboard from my neighborhood rep I should have it tomorrow so we will see what happens
