Maybe it just depends on the area I have had Comcast Business Class at my residences through the past 7 years with no problems at all. Infact my current connection has almost a better uptime than our t1's at our office. Connected (165d 13h 29m 37s) with 16/2 minimum speed. I personally would use Comcast over Global Crossing based on personal experience :P Ive got a /29 awesome reliability and the name of my business rep who I can call when I need something. $99 a month doesn't seem bad for that. -----Original Message----- From: Steven King [mailto:sking () kingrst com] Sent: Saturday, February 21, 2009 9:52 AM To: Owen DeLong Cc: NANOG list Subject: Re: comcast price check I can't even get reliable home cable internet service from them. No way I would ever consider using them for transit. I would only consider a stub peer with them to help out the poor Comcast customers who are also trying to get to my data centers.

Fair warning, Comcast is totally into the bait and switch game. Talk to any 3 people at Comcast and you will receive at least 4 different answers about what is or isn't included. Having a particular offer in writing makes no difference to them. I will be contacting the Santa Clara County District Attorney about my experiences with Comcast in violation of CA B&P code S17500 soon. I spent the last two months trying repeatedly to get Comcast to recognize and live up to their obligations under the offer they originally extended to me. They waffled for a very long time before I finally reached someone who flat-out told me that they were not ever going to deliver what was promised.
