I live north of 466. For past few days I have had issues with Comcast cable pixellating on the local stations. The national stations such as ESPN or AMC are fine. It just seems to be the local Orlando stations. I have rebooted the cable box a couple of times but with no luck. I am getting ready to call 1-800-Comcast, but wanted to see if others were having the same problem.
My internet service is fine.

I have had that in the past. Once they replaced the box. The last time did a remote boot and has lasted about 2 months and counting.
Some of the time it is the zoom connections they are using and the signal coming to our homes,, with the virus there is a lot of video being sent.

My internet service is fine.I get that as well but usually only on local and syndicated programming (like Judge Judy etc). For me most of the network programming (7-11pm) shows are fine. It's probably the downlink from the local stations to Comcast head end. Nothing they can do about it. Could even be caused by weather between Comcast head end and the local towers. If it happens all the time 24-7 on all the stations that's another story but for me it's just the non-primetime syndicated and local shows (before the evening national news) when it does happen. Today it was pretty bad. Gets me mad when my Judge Judy recordings gets messed up! :) Rebooting or replacing the box won't help and it's nothing to do with your internet.
