Default Comcast Meltdown

Bought a new laptop Saturday and tried to get our home networking
router (installed by Comcast) to recognize it by calling tech help
line. The result was losing all Internet access on all the computers
until about an hour ago.

New laptop runs on Vista, but that wasn't the problem. I actually
like Vista.

The problem was the total incompetence of Comcast's technical helpline
via telephone.

Long story which I won't go into, but finally a couple of knowledgable
people showed up and got everything up and running better than ever.

BTW .... I heard a rumor that Apple is going to get out of the
business. Macs will be no longer.

Who did you hear that rumor from? Your guys at Comcast?

What brand router do you have? It shouldn't really require much if any
specific setup, or are you referring to the "cable modem"?


You should've just called Harry he can fix anything.
