Does anyone else use Comcast internet service? If you do are you experience major slowdowns?

I have comcast ( formaly @Home ). So far no problems becuase of the service. However the box I have is quite old ( nearly 8 years old ) and if moved just a milimeter, it freaks out, and you need to slowly move it around for it to reconnect....

No Problems here but it does seem quite slow. I don't think I could ever get 100mbps...

A T1 is only running at 1.5 megs but it does it at a constant rate.

I think 100mps is what the LAN is running at. In technical terms 100Base-TX or 100mb per second. 1000Base-TX is gigabit lan or 1000mb per second. correct me if im wrong.
