Well done Comcast!

deafboy

Comcast did something nice for a change.

 

Noticed a local subreddit making note of Comcast doubling their speeds.  Thought I wasn't effected since I had just ran a speed test yesterday and it was 50Mb down.  Ran just to check and BAM!  Almost 125Mb down...

Anyone else across the country get a bump from Comcast recently?

Pls, in Canada, the internet is so fucking expensive. They are also starting to cut the speed and raise the prices. Kind of a big slap in the fucking face.

Now you can use your datacap faster!

Comcast has a datacap?!?  Oh no, as a Canadian... I feel sorta responsible.  We have had crappy data caps for years now :unsure: .

OP I'm sure you know they're not doing this for anyone other than their own benefit. 

 

Definitely not for the sake of progress, or whatever they'll dub it.

Yeah, well we only get a max of 100Mbps down and 2.5Mbps up and comparing those speeds with speeds I've seen other people on here have I think that is a bit crappy if you ask me. :(

Heck! Okay, but still you could choose to keep that kind of language of the forums. It kinda makes you sound uneducated IMHO.

i know alot of people who have masters degrees who swear like a sailor. xP

 

 

i dont use it that often. however i dont limit myself when i feel the need to not use words other than ''heck!'' or ''oh my goodness!'' as when over used it just sounds silly. :/
