Comcast Business Class Cable Internet
Posted on May 1, 2008 – 2:32 pm by admin
I am not sure if I previously mentioned this or not, but I am now in need of business class internet service, because I now require a static IP address.
The guys from Comcast just left. They switched our services from residential TV, cable and internet to just residential TV and cable and now business internet. They did a bunch of stuff, but the main thing was to set up another modem downstairs, alongside the old one and the router.
I already see a speed increase with downloading my files. I just happen to be in the middle of a big download, and strangely enough, the connection didn’t break…it just got faster. I have yet to set up the router to work with the static IP, but have found the support page that tells me how to do it. We are going out for a little while and I’ll give it a shot when we get back.
One thing I am going to do is the create a screen capture of the original settings, just in case I screw up. I am also going to have Hannigan’s number on hand. Hopefully he is familiar with Linksys routers.

Just wondering, what type of router did they give you? Does it have additional ports to plugin? Is it a gigabit router 10/100/1000? About to get Comcast business, but was wondering about the router they install.

Hi,
They didn’t leave a router. I used the one I purchased here:
