Have no idea why ask here what is wrong with your cable service. The good thing about Comcast is that the others stink as well.

The issues are many fold. I was told that our connection is black cable and that the proper cable for running underground should be brown. The service people are subcontractors and most do not care about quality work.

Our neighbor had a pool put in and his people cut the wire. They sent a tech after several days and he confirmed YUP the cable has been cut. No he does not FIX it he only does to the house. So after a few days they sent another tech-he is the wire guy.
Our service was restored. I got a call from a neighbor a few houses down that they left cable laying on his landscaping. I told him it must be trash and to cut it and toss it.
NOPE-they never PROPERLY buried the cable. My connection was again out.

They sent a crew which installed a huge cable, not sure if that has anything to do with me. As it is said don't poke sleeping bears. Our cable is working and has been fine for several years. Our connection is black and brown or is it black and blue?

Triple play? By definition they gocha by the TV, computer and telephone.
