PSA Comcast increased their internet speeds

[Steps]

Screw you hippie! You're just jealous because my internet is like 100x faster than yours and doesnt cost me a nickel... Haha

Nah man. I would rather live where I do, and have what I have, than some fast internet!

Now answer my damn e-mail. Loser.

Funny, our internet has been stupid slow lately. Haven't power cycled since yesterday though.

No joke! Mine too! I will power cycle my modem tonight and report back.

My download speed tripled and I did have to do a reboot.

Unless you have a VoIP router with the battery backup, in that case there is a small recessed reset button on the back, just push it with a pin. If you're not getting your home phone from Comcast you most likely just have a regular modem.

Killer timing: For those with an older DOCSIS 2.0 modem Newegg.com just put a rebate on their ZyXEL Comcast modem which is DOCSIS 3.0 and is only $20 after a $30 mail in rebate. It should be noted that Motorola is the gold standard for residential cable modems but for $20 this is a REALLY good modem and if I had to buy a modem today I wouldn't hesitate to buy this one. I mean, for $20 you can't go wrong compared to paying Comcast $8/mo for their modem which is on par with this one.

For $20 , it might might even be worth having as a spare. And the modem lease fee is now $10/mo (went up in Sep or Oct).
