Forgive me for not having more technical information about this issue. Beginning sometime around 4:00 PM MST on Saturday, I started seeing horrible slowness on my home Internet connection through Comcast, and I also noticed that I was seeing numerous timeouts on DNS lookups. At the same time, a friend of mine who also uses Comcast was seeing the same thing. Approximately a third of my DNS lookups were timing out.
I had lots of problems with Comcast DNS over the weekend. The Comcast network status said some undefined network maintenance was occuring. When I used a different provider at the same time, I didn't see any problems. So I just assumed it was the usual Comcast gremlins and used an alternate provider for a while. By Sunday whatever the network maintenance or problem was seemed to have cleared up.
