Hey Alternageeks,
Another great podcast, glad your all back. In regards to your comments about Comcast, I just happen to have one of their green boxes in our back yard that supplies several neighbors. Our service has slowed down considerably since Comcast barged in and took over Time Warner in the Houston area. Last time I looked, they put special connectors that require a special tool to allow you to connect up to one of the spare coax connectors. I’ll take some photos of the box tonight and see if anyone might have ideas. I am not afraid to try out connecting something up to the outlets and seeing what I can do.
Did someone say ice cream!!
Thanks! It was nice having Linuxchic back because it’s easier doing the show with both of us here, plus she asks much better questions during interviews.
Maybe Comcast’s issue isn’t with AT&T U-Verse but related to how they they architect/manage their infrastructure.
Don’t forget ice cream tonight! (April 30th)
As always, thanks for listening!
