Syon Posted September 7, 2005 CID Share Posted September 7, 2005 Since I've gotten tired of replying to every post here, i'm creating this topic, mods please sticky it. Comcast is currenctly having a number of problems throughout the country. The upgrade has caused a number of speed problems throughout the country. The problems are mostly centralized in their node routers. If you are in one of the following areas, please goto http://forums.comcast.net/forum.jspa?forumID=5 and and find the thread designated for your area. Maryland(Baltimore County) Maryland(Montgomery County) Northern California and the Bay Area Southern Florida Southern California These 5 areas are the most problematic, and Comcast is currently working on them. In Maryland they are testing, and implementing a new patch on the routers, the other areas they are searching, and testing for the problem. If you are not in one of those areas, you may want to create a new thread in that forum. For whereever you live, post these results in your post(EXCEPT FOR BALTIMORE COUNTY, they dont need more results) In the command prompt tracert www.comcast.net and enter the results Goto http://192.168.100.1/ and check stuff like your signal strength, system status, etc and post those results. In the command prompt post the results of ipconfig/all In the command prompt post the results of ping -n 20 www.comcast.net And post speed results from different times of day(especially if there is a trend of being fast at times, and slow at times) And MAKE SURE you tell them what tier you SHOULD be at.(after checking this thread to see if you have been upgraded: http://forums.comcast.net/thread.jspa?threadID=42769&tstart=0) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
