The internet is fast! 6.0Mbps for a standard and 8.0Mbps for a premium, I'm not even going to talk about power boost! I never had my internet go out, never have to touch the modem and it's always fast, peak times, mornings, middle of the night. I'm downloading so fast that each time I do it I'm surprised at how fast it is!

I don't know what people are talking about restarting the modem, I never have to do that. Comcast also doesn't use the age old PPPoE interface like DSL does, making it way easier to network with a router. (If you ever hooked up DSL with a router you know what I'm talking about.)

In the Chicagoland area the main competitor is AT&T DSL which runs at .768 Mbps!!! That's 7.8 times SLOWER! Now there is a single drawback to Comcast and that's cost, it's about double the price over DSL. I don't know about you but my time is valuable and I'm willing to pay for quality, reliable service. It's Comcastic!
