Third, we need to protect consumers' access. If we had declined to act, as the dissenting Commissioners would have preferred, we would have provided certainty that broadband operators can block access and hide their actions from their own customers. We establish a clear framework for how we will conduct our fact-intensive inquiries if situations arise in the future. Second, it is important for the Commission to establish the important precedent that we will stop the bad actors. Comcast's agreement with a single company that uses the peer-to-peer protocol is not a substitute for addressing the consumer groups' complaint. As a basic issue of administrative law, we need to resolve the complaint. Consumer groups brought the complaint – not BitTorrent – and they and Comcast have not settled. But contrary to some claims, Comcast's agreement with the company BitTorrent did not obviate the need for us to act today.įirst, BitTorrent was not a party to the proceeding. And I note that we have decided not to issue a fine. I am pleased that Comcast has reached an agreement with the company BitTorrent and has committed to implement a new "protocol-agnostic" management technique by the end of the year. The FCC filed a complaint against them, they are supposedly resolving the issue by the end of the year.

Operating system is Vista Ultimate (and Mac Leopard).ħ. Speed Guide port checker says everything's okay.Ħ. Speed guide said to set my upload limit to 72. Connection is still dying within two or three minutes.Ģ. I've tried connecting my modem directly to computer. Have not tried patching TCPIP.sys (I have Vista Ultimate).

#COMCAST INTERNET UPTIME TORRENT#
I know that Comcast has started throttling torrents, but I thought that was just supposed to kill seeding, not the entire connection itself.ĭoes anyone have any ideas what the problem might be? Or have heard of a similar situation where, after two years of stable and solid torrent usage, it would suddenly start to kill my Internet entirely?Īny help or advice would be greatly appreciated.įor what it's worth, if it will help solve this problem. Both have been outstanding wherever I've lived. I use my own modem, a DLink DCM 202 (with the firmware that makes it work with Comcast installed), and my router is a DLink DGL 4300. Both machines use static IPs, and the appropriate ports are opened on my router.
This problem is affecting both my desktop (Vista hardwired to router) and my laptop (Macbook on wireless). I have NOT changed ANY settings on my computer, in uTorrent, on my router, or my modem. They'd be completely stable with speeds anywhere from 300 to 800.
Whether it's for browsing, gaming, video streaming, or downloading large non-torrent files.īefore the problem started, I never had problems with torrents. When I don't have a torrent going, my Internet is rock solid.
#COMCAST INTERNET UPTIME FULL#
It's a full Internet shutoff that requires a modem unplug/replug to get it going again.
Whenever I start a torrent, my Internet dies completely within a few minutes. I've lived in the same location for two years. I did a search, and was unable to find a situation exactly like mine. I apologize if there's already been a gazillion threads about this. I'll preface this by saying that I've followed all the steps located at.
