So my intertubes went down yesterday and I had to call Comcast. Now let me say that GENERALLY I've had good luck with Comcast. Good up time and very fast speeds. But I needed to get the net back up because the family uses it for business. So as always I call up as someone who is completely technologically illiterate. This is what I learned:
- Comcast gives you 50Gb of bandwidth (Lies, it's actually 250GB a month)
- Watching videos on sites like netflix, hulu, and youtube is "streaming" and doesn't use bandwidth because it doesn't save on your harddrive (How do they know?)
- Uploading is not bandwidth (Because "bandwidth" is only when things are saved to your harddrive, see?)

Conclusion: Comcast tech support are MORONS. If I didn't know better, I would have actually fallen for his shit. How do people like this get jobs?
