Latest update

Two techs came but could not get my modem to work or register with my account number. They installed a new modem with same result.

After several calls they finally got it working with the new modem. I think they had to treat me like a new customer to get it working.

Something had happened at corporate office I’m just not sure what.

Spoke too soon – something is not right – Thunderbird can not login to any of my Comcast.net accounts – invalid login.

My insight accounts still work OK. Something is weird. I can check insight accounts but when I send mail it never appears – should not say never - I waited for 10 minutes to check again.

Now I can access Comcast.net accounts. Oh well, I’ll test it in the morning.

Here is the last speed test to my favorite site. I have been getting very consistent readings for the last hour. I hope it lasts.
