No Offense

With all do respect, I am glad YOU are not having any problems. However, Flash speed tests are NOT accurate as they are subject to higher compression ratios, thus contributing to an illusion of greater speeds particularly on those networks that deploy (certain) network management protocols.

Also the size and time to run most speed tests are generally within the size/time frame of (certain) technologies employed on a network such as 'PowerBoost'. Maybe good for small up to 20MB files. But the truth is, it helps to fortify to the illusion of "Greater Speeds". Thus used heavily in marketing strategies.

What is Power Boost? »Comcast High Speed Internet FAQ »What is PowerBoost?

Cheers!

Never did I say it was accurate, then again I can see you don't bother to read as I mentioned it was only PowerBoost! that was deployed in reference to the screen shot.

I'm not sure what need you have there to feel important but you didn't impress me in the least. You can try to piss all over this review all you want but the fact still remains that at all times of the day I get my full 16/2, which is reliable, stable, and with PowerBoost!. Just as mentioned in my total review.

Yep. I don't see where you referenced the your image directly to 'PowerBoost'. Perhaps it's a subliminal implied thing uh? Or maybe we were to assume I suppose.

Sorry you felt I was trying to piss all over your review. Trust me, if that's what I really wanted to do, I would have expressed it so & been a lot more obvious at it.

Who knows, Some folks believe all the marketing crap they hear & read and are 'educated' as so.

I don't doubt one bit that some folks on Comcast in certain areas are getting very good service.

I don't know you, you don't really know me. I have a problem with Comcast and we'll just keep that as a problem with Comcast.

I recon in hindsight it can be taken as a 'Pissing' on your review. Wasn't my true intention. I figured you to base your Comcast user experience solely on flash speed tests & similar. For that, I was wrong.
