Is anyone else having these problems?
Is this a Comcast or Netflix/Amazon problem?
Comcast just announced giga bit speed is now available. Have they slowed down existing customers in order to sell this new service?
We have Comcast and have not experienced the issue you described. Request a service call, and have the tech check the line coming into your house. We had them out last year to install a new jack in another room. Before even knocking on the door, the tech check the signal, and noticed it was lacking. Bottom line, at no cost to us, he worked tirelessly installing a new supply line from the box on the corner of our lot. The new line is a larger diameter, and because of the distance to our house, it didn't lose its strength. We could not be happier with Comcast.
