Whoa, you need to calm down there. 0.06 MB/sec downloads? Too much for me to handle dude.

I have Comcast as well, it was spiking for the download speed, but then... x-x

Nico seemed to have like supersonic speed (He has Comcast, as well). He downloads games at like 17 mb/s and he gets a spike of 20-30 mb/s, it's crazy.

EDIT:
Took another,

This was happening over the span of a week. So I went to my Comcast office and asked them if this was normal. They said yes and I just had to wait a few days. So I asked how much computers the internet could handle while keeping good speeds. The guy said 2. Woah, woah, woah, hold the phone! The advertisement when I got it was I could handle 5 computers at once. Moral: Comcast is great if you have one computer.

You sure it's not your router? Connect directly to your modem and see if that helps.

comcast is trash. I have it and its a pain x-x

Rexx · 08-07-2012

All U.S. internet is crap, they charge us HIGHER rates than other countries for LESS speed.

Apparently they have speeds of a GB / sec in Sweden for the same prices we have for 10 MB / Sec.

(So Google Fiber acts like it's a huge deal when it's really just a huge deal to us.)

Because we're stupid enough to listen to their marketing techniques. It's like people with Beats.

Rexx · 08-07-2012

Well we don't have any alternatives, there is no competition that would cause the current companies to lower their rates or improve the speeds.

iHot · 08-07-2012

You think comcast is bad try AT&T worst customer service.

The Doctor · 08-07-2012

I used to have Comcast, now I switched to Verizon. My Internet is still slow as fk, 500kb/s

It's because my brother plays smite a lot and a lot of devices are connected at once, but still!
