Comcast Links Now Live

August 15th, 2008

Comcast Links Now Live

I am happy to announce that our direct links to Comcast are now live. This gives us direct connectivity to the network that is most frequently accessing our network, as Comcast users alone currently counts for over 15% of our total network output. Comcast had also served as a trouble spot, where we would often get odd BGP routes broadcast, etc. but now that we have a direct contract with Comcast, and thus a direct line to their commercial transit NOC, we are hoping that such issues are an issue of the past. Comcast users, enjoy your new, faster speeds to our network!

Note: We currently have 2 Gbit/sec of capacity to Comcast, but will look at expanding that as our traffic to Comcast grows.
