Comcast WiFi Gateway

Google is actually in Provo, several from our office went out there when we were pushing the X1 stuff into all the homes to compete with Google.



So does that make three of us or two of us?

I work in Greeley.

Fiber to the home in Erie now.

What company and what area? Centurylink is the only other option here north of the golf course and the speed available to me does not indicate a fiber connection.

Unless you are in Fort Collins, keep an eye on your Comcast internet on 12/16. If you are using a docsis 2 device, i would upgrade by then or you will not see the benefit. Just reboot your modem on the 16th.

Something to note for Comcast people, the new router/modem they sent out (at least the one they sent to me) doesn't support VPN (makes no sense to me). Since I need that to access my work, they're sending me out a new one to use. So if you too use VPN and it doesn't suddenly work, might be the new device they sent ya.

To not support VPN pass-through by default in this day and age isn't the wisest choice, IMO.

Which modem did they send you? I wasn't aware any of them weren't VPN compatible, but I generally deal with business class devices. But any of the newer modems and gateways should have been compatible.

The VPN bit is what the service rep told me. As for the device, it is a technicolor model TC8305C.

I have same modem, same problem. No VPN on wireless. Odd part is I can VPN through my Netgear router. Hooked up to the gateway that dosen't work with it. Comcast is going to offer a work ethernet at home product soon which as far as I can tell is a permanent VPN type product. You can sign up for it, I'm sure it is a fantastic product even at twicw the price. http://finance.yahoo.com/news/comcas...170000975.html
