Re: [PLUG] Comcast Crackdown
|
there was never anything officially announced to me. they said that my modem
may not have been picking up the DHCP request due to variances in the signal
strength - or some such bullshit. i think i just alerted them to what i was
doing and their net.gestapo came down on me.
if your's go over smoothly, then don't whatever you do, don't call their
tech-support!
in fact - now that I think about it - perhaps they were attempting to migrate
me over all those times it went down for 4-5 hours in the middle of the day!
that is probably a low usage time, since many home users would be at work.
hmmm... bastards!
