Tech: Comcast ups speed, drops the ball.

Comcast recently started up grading their speed to 4Mb. Which is great, I love to see the numbers go up on data transfer. The problem is right after they did it people started having connection problems. This wasn't one of those local problems it was nationwide.

My Way News: "Comcast's high-speed Internet customers nationwide have suffered Web and e-mail problems since last week, the company said Thursday.
The intermittent nature of the problem made it difficult to pinpoint how many of Comcast's nearly 7 million broadband customers have been affected, Comcast spokeswoman Jeanne Russo said.
Some Web pages took a long time to load or were inaccessible altogether. E-mail was down for some.
The exact cause of the problem had not been determined, but the troubles related to Comcast's Domain Name Server system, which translates easy-to-remember domain names like 'AP.org' into a Web site's actual numeric address, Russo said.
The latest service disruption started about 8:30 p.m. Wednesday and ended shortly after midnight. Customers experienced similar problems last Thursday and during a three-hour period Tuesday starting around 6:30 p.m."
