Do you have to be in a fiber optic area to get that plan?

Yes, do need to be in fiber optic area. Just need to watch bill for when discounts expire, call them and they put discounts back in.

Comcast updated dual-band router

Called Comcast a few weeks ago because our Internet speed was inconsistent, between 4-70 mbps and averaged 23. I assumed the speed varied due to network congestion because it had always been that way here in TV. The Comcast service rep suggested an updated router, a free upgrade. Today I stopped at Comcast in Summerfield and swapped out the router. Wow, I was surprised to see consistent Internet speeds now between 79-90 mbps. The old router was from 2010, which is not that old but what a difference with the new dual-band 2.4 and 5 MHz router. If you’re unhappy with your Internet speed, consider replacing the router.
