I've never had problems with our Comcast internet. Once it got working that is. We have a wireless setup in our house and when we first got set up with Comcast they made a big deal about how they should do the installation because wireless was so tricky. I said WTF, but once it was set up I couldn't play some of my online games. I figured it was some firewall in their router and called them up. I spent an hour on the phone with the guy but couldn;t get it working so they said they'd send someone out. Fine, just get it working.

The next day the guy shows up and is totally clueless. I knew a hell of a lot more than he did and I don't know that much. Why the hell send him at all? The guy was barely qualified to do a basic installation, certainly not solve a tech issue. He spent two hours, mostly on the phone talking to someone who had a little bit of a clue and couldn't figure anythnig out. Finally some other guy who ahppened to be in the area came by and told me that it probably would never work. Comcast routers suck and they put their own firewalls in that can't be gotten around. He said just switch it to a standard cable modem then go by my own wireless router. That worked perfectly and saved me $180. So, I figure they have at least one good employee.
