04/20/2004 02:13 PMWhen I moved from my apartment into my townhouse a bit over a month
ago, I called Comcast to let them know. I explained that I was merely
relocating and didn't want to change any aspect of my service other
than the location. They said that was quite easy and we selected dates
for the change. They told me to hang on to my existing cable modem.
Then, on the appointed day, the Comcast tech came out to check

07/28/2004 02:22 AMFrom its headquarters in Philadelphia, Comcast has indicated that it
will offer its High-Speed Internet service customers a 4 Mbps speed
tier as a new service option directed towards homes with multiple PCs
and power users. Comcast is also increasing e-mail storage to 1.7 GB,
nearly doubling the space offered by Google's free Gmail service.
Earlier this year, Comcast upgraded all of its customer accounts with
a 3 Mbps download stream free at no additional cost.

Comcast Celebrates By Turning Off DNS
04/08/2005 12:13 PMIt looks like Adelphia cable broadband customers who are about to get
shifted over to Comcast have plenty of outages to look forward to.
The same evening that it's announced that
Time Warner and Comcast will jointly devour what's left of
Adelphia for about $18 billion, Comcast
had major DNS
issues leaving many of their users offline. Of course, in
explaining the widespread outage, Comcast is using their favorite
phrase:
"scheduled
maintenance." That's the same thing they told me when Comcast
turned off my service nearly every weekday last October. I would call
every morning and be told that it was "scheduled maintenance."
However, when I asked what the schedule was and if I'd have service
the next day, I was told they had no idea. Apparently, it doesn't
become scheduled until it actually cut you off.

Comcast Outages Prevent Comcast From
Commenting On Comcast Outages
04/14/2005 01:21 PMLast week, we noted that Comcast was having widespread outage
problems, which they
chalk
ed up to "scheduled maintenance", even though no one was actually
informed of said schedule ahead of time. It turns out that schedule
is pretty crowded, because all week long, there have been
continued
reports of recurring outages all across the Comcast network.
Comcast, of course, continues to be pretty much silent on the issue,
leaving its increasingly fed up call center staff to deal with
incredibly angry customers who feel they're getting no information at
all. How hard is it to admit that they screwed up and they're working
on fixing the problem? Instead of chalking it up to bogus scheduled
maintenance or pretending there's nothing wrong, admit what the
problem is and give people real updates. People would still be
unhappy, but at least they'd feel like the company wasn't ignoring
them. Of course, maybe they can't do that because Comcast staffers
don't have any internet access either...

Change Your Linksys WRT54G Admin
Password Right Now!
06/02/2004 01:16 PMTech consultant discovers that Linksys WRT54G allows remote,
over-the-Internet administration login even when remote management is
turned off: Because all broadband gateway vendors ship their equipment
with default passwords like public or admin, this vulnerability is
moderately critical according to the Secunia security consultants. An
automated attack could scan millions of home broadband network
addresses and feed them the WRT54G Web login sequence. With remote
administrative access, the most that could happen is vandalism: the
Linksys doesn't provide tools via its Web interface for packet
sniffing, but someone could corrupt the setup and lock a user out by
changing the password, requiring a hard reset. Also, Linksys' Web form
appears to send the WEP or WPA password as hidden password text in a
Web form, but that text is unencrypted in the HTML source, which can
easily be viewed....

AT&T Broadband / Comcast or
03/20/2003 05:32 PMAT&T Broadband / Comcast or "I'd Rather Eat Glass"
Damn. Last week Kasia
got screwed by AT&T / Comcast. Now its me. Here's what
happened:
- Come back from meeting with a client about a bunch of rather
interesting stuff. Some Inbox Buddy, some Feedster for internal use, some Frontier consulting and some
miscellaneous other open source issues.
- Virtually no network performance at all.> 200 ms ping times,
hosts not resolving, etc. Call AT&T.
- Suffer thru one of the worst voice response systems I've seen in a
long time. Horrid.
- Reach a technician. He makes me remove my PC from the
Linksys broadband router that shields my PC from the outside
world. I'm not happy about this but a 10 Base T coupler makes it
a lot easier.
- He tells me to restart. I counter with "ipconfig
/renew". He shuts up.
- I start doing some ping tests and he's telling me that all is well
and happy, frothy goodness since he can ping me fine.
- I start to traceroute and give him feedback about the broken
routes. I ask him: What's an email address so I can mail
it to you? "I don't have one". What's a hot mail account I
can send it to? "I can't give that to you either." So I
ended up reading him the bad routes. Pathetic. And this
from a company that sucks $50 from me monthly for broadband?
- I finally give him the info, he checks it from there after a 5
minute hold session and B I N G O ! I was *right*. They
have a problem on their internal network and then I had to wait on
hold for another 5 minutes while he filled out a trouble ticket.
Then I got the really bad news.
- "It'll be resolved within 72 hours. Not necessarily fixed
but hopefully a solution decided upon." What the fsck does that
mean ? That within 3 days from now, you'll decide how to fix it
and then take as long as you like? Utterly, totally
pathetic.
End result? Over an hour of my time shot to hell simply
because AT&T can't proactively monitor its own damn network.
I tell you, times like this? I'd rather eat glass than be an
AT&T customer.
