I moved to Comcast Business internet and phone about a month ago. The level of incompetence and apathy we were faced with in every single stage of the process was astounding. We just realized that all unanswered calls were going to some voicemail system they didn't tell us about instead of our answering machine. The key presses to get messages from the phone don't work, so we figured we would get the list of messages from the website, but the feature was disabled on my account page, as if we didn't have digital voice. He didn't believe me, so I told him to log in as me. But he couldn't, .... because he lost internet access. Impressive. Ok, just to get back on track... # traceroute news.bbc.co.uk traceroute to news.bbc.co.uk (212.58.226.75), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets 1 janus.thekramers.net (192.168.1.3) 0.206 ms 0.173 ms 0.156 ms 2 96.128.96.1 (96.128.96.1) 10.513 ms 10.606 ms 10.768 ms 3 68.85.185.49 (68.85.185.49) 11.959 ms 12.136 ms * 4 * * * 5 * * * 6 * * * 7 * xe-10-1-0.edge1.NewYork2.Level3.net (4.78.169.45) 13.424 ms 13.398 ms 8 * vlan89.csw3.NewYork1.Level3.net (4.68.16.190) 28.322 ms vlan69.csw1.NewYork1.Level3.net (4.68.16.62) 25.697 ms 9 ae-71-71.ebr1.NewYork1.Level3.net (4.69.134.69) 22.487 ms 22.329 ms * 10 * * * 11 * * * 12 * * 195.50.90.190 (195.50.90.190) 90.918 ms 13 * * * 14 * * * 15 newslb306.telhc.bbc.co.uk (212.58.226.75) 93.971 ms 97.443 ms 97.558 ms # traceroute www.google.com traceroute to www.google.com (64.233.169.147), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets 1 janus.thekramers.net (192.168.1.3) 0.155 ms 0.143 ms 0.136 ms 2 96.128.96.1 (96.128.96.1) 10.992 ms 11.158 ms 12.218 ms 3 68.85.185.49 (68.85.185.49) 12.593 ms 12.767 ms * 4 * * * 5 * * * 6 * * * 7 * xe-8-2-0.edge1.NewYork2.Level3.net (4.71.186.21) 15.332 ms 14.183 ms 8 vlan79.csw2.NewYork1.Level3.net (4.68.16.126) 19.140 ms * vlan69.csw1.NewYork1.Level3.net (4.68.16.62) 18.822 ms 9 ae-73-73.ebr3.NewYork1.Level3.net (4.69.134.101) 22.716 ms * * 10 * * ae-3.ebr4.Washington1.Level3.net (4.69.132.93) 28.156 ms 11 * * * 12 * * * 13 GOOGLE-INC.edge1.Washington1.Level3.net (4.79.231.6) 67.285 ms * * 14 * * * 15 216.239.49.145 (216.239.49.145) 40.538 ms 43.078 ms 216.239.49.149 (216.239.49.149) 43.362 ms 16 yo-in-f147.google.com (64.233.169.147) 40.184 ms 44.772 ms * -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
