Pretty sure these offers only exist in markets where comcast has a competitor.

The only offer for me is 50mbit for $69.99 or local TV + 100mb for $65, both on contract. I'm currently on 100mbit for $49. I could even cancel and sign-up on a new name for less. These offers are straight-up scams.

Every year I call to 'cancel' and ask for the same deal again. This is what it looks like when you have no competition.

Are they still charging "broadcast fees" if you only have Internet from them? If someone can confirm on the taxes being charged and any other misc. fees over and above the quoted price.
No taxes/fees if you do internet only.

I'm Sac area, only see 100mbps for $45, bummer Frown

Yes, these are the upload speeds. Comcast hides them, you only see them after purchase. I had some of these plans before and found some info on some forums as well. Anything below Blast Pro has 5 Mbps upload speed at the most. This is the list value and in reality you get about 15-20% more. So, my current 800/15 gets me 920/17.8 or so on good days. When I had Blast Pro with 10 upload we usually got 11.5 ish upload. With the Gigabit speed at 35 upload you can expect about 42 in reality for max upload.

Essentially, these are the categories though and the uploads speeds haven't changed in a long time for Performance Pro, Blast Pro, Extreme Pro etc.

Very helpful!
To contrast.. I've ATT Fiber Giga line today and over a wireless connection, speed test shows 500+ mbps of download and 200+ mbps of upload speeds. Have had that for an year for $60/month.

Also https://about.att.com/sites/broad...erformance

I was thinking of signing up for Comcast 800mbps one for $60 (ATT deal credits were for an year only), but the Comcast upload speeds that are very relevant for zoom video calls, for example, concern me.

Keep ATT Fiber. Comcast upload speeds are complete trash compared to fiber. No comparison.

Keep the Fiber. I pay premium with Comcast simply for the upload speed, I don't need half or 2/3 of the download speed. But when you present online and share your screen with a good camera and you have 2 people doing this at the same time in different meetings and want some buffer you need some upload. Add cloud storage and I often wish the upload was faster even at their second highest tier with 15 Mbps.

That's what I was quoted as well in Bay Area.
Although it was $60 for the first year and then $74 in year 2 (to cover modem cost). Everyone else seeing the same?

Buy your own modem. Costco has the Netgear CM1100 and the Motorola was on sale here on SD recently. Pays for itself within a year.

Also, if in SF/Bay Area, it seems Sonic is finally expanding fiber services to more areas. I was about to renew Comcast but the building manager saw the Sonic installers 2-3 blocks away and they said they are expanding services in the next few weeks/months. So, I won't extend Comcast for now but give it 1-3 months and see if Sonic Fiber finally shows up. Their website still tells me 12 Mbit/s with two DSL lines is possible... what year was that again?

Let's hope for fiber optic soon:

what type of zoom meeting is that? I am just curious. My kids and I had 30/3 comcast plan and we do not have problem to have 3 meetings at the same time.

... snipped ...
So here's the nightmare I fear. While the Comcast modems\gateways have always been very pedestrian I have never had any issues with them in 25 years of service. So, say I buy my own replacement modem and then I start to have problems, right away they zero in on I am using my own modem, not theirs. Their support level isn't the same if the modem\gateway isn't theirs. And if I\we don't resolve the problem I have to try other modems until I get things working or end up going back to theirs again, where I was before I decided to buy my own.

It would be nice to have a real world idea of how often buying your own modem works out just fine and how often things go bad and folks end up back with Comcast's equipment.

You should never advise people to buy their own modem because some people are technologically challenged and rely on support. If you can configure your own modem, go ahead and buy it yourself. But if you dont even know how to turn on one, its okay to use the comcast one so that they will support you.

Sonic will only come to areas where your power poles are accessible on city property. If your poles reside on private property, it will be too much work for them to get approval from all residents to allow them to perform the work necessary to provide service to that area.
