    not sure how much you know about the Internet, but those speed test sites are bunk and not reliable

    I mean even between your two sites, it's a 5mbps difference. what do you think accounts for that? anyway, like I said those speed test sites mean nothing

    the only meaningful way is just to see how fast you downlaod an actual compressed file from a website server that can provide ample consistent speed

    We just canceled our comcast

    WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER

    we waited over a week for them fix our connection. Then they tell us they will be there from 8am-8pm. At 8:30 after sitting in our house, waiting for them all day, we call them and they claim they waited at our house for 15 minutes at 7:00 pm. apperently when i was sitting on the couch 20 feet from the door.

    I want to get Comcast internet, does anyone have Comcast HD cable? Is that any good? Good quality? Lots of HD channels? Reasonable price?

    The two together is like $66 for the 1st year

    My HD channels seem good but I really don't have anything to compare it to.
