Comcast always says when you call about speed well it has to go thru your walls and it slows down everything or connect directly thru modem etc its all B.S. The truth is and they will never tell you is all comcast modems are set at lower speeds on purpose. I went to best buy and bought my on modem netgear night nighthawk.Comcast compatible and around 189.00, after installing my speeds have been what i'm paying for I went from 60 down load speed to the 200 download speed im paying for and with the speed test im at 235 to 240. The walls in my house dosent seem to mess the speed up with my netgear nighthawk modem. Comcast will never tell you the truth about this but scare you and tell you well we cant service your modem if you own it dont listen. I can now stream on my computer , firestick, hulu etc with no buffering.
