I heard about the comcast thing. I did speed test using one of those cool web browser speed tests. I didn’t have the fast speed the first time I did the test. So I pulled the power plug on the cable modem, counted to ten, plugged it back in.
I did the speed test again, et voila. The upgraded comcast speeds work. I’ll be hosting websites soon 🙂

I’m in the Corona, California area and I keep hearing that Comcast will eventually upgrade speeds for all users by March 31. Today is March 30 and I never received any notification of upgrade. Can you tell me when this will happen? Thanks!
