Glacial internet at times today. You?
Sites I've checked with http://www.isitdownrightnow.com/ are up. Changing DNS servers hasn't helped.
But Google especially seems to be pokey. E.g. Plus times out at times. Google searches sit at "waiting for www.google.com" for quite a while, but usually complete.
http://www.isitdownr...m/google.com.html lists a few comments, but it doesn't seem to be masses of people having issues.
I installed the client from http://www.internettrafficreport.com and it doesn't seem to say anything unusual (a server in Ashburn is dead but that seems normal).
I know that ISPs typically hijack Google to run searches locally. They don't do that with all Google services, do they?
Bah. It's like being on dialup again. :-(
Cheers,
Scott.

It seems to be "fixed" now. Weird.

Comcast is rolling out new...
IPV6 support all over the place and the Prefix Delegation was supposedly screwed up...
Causing tons and tons of routes that weren't real.

Nope
Here in the Glorious Socialist States Of Europe, tractor production may well be up for the fifth year in a row, but the internet has remained at full speed.

Wot 'e said.
Ferchrissakes, Peter. Many of us (especially here) know that en toto, the American Revolution probably wasn't worth it. Except that you guys over there never pretended to have a "right to privacy" and a lot of us here believed that myth. Until, of course, Snowden.

More info about Comcast and IPv6
So, after 24 hours of playing with Comcast's "native" IPv6 this weekend, the kludges of Comcast's DHCPv6 implementation is apparent.
Anyway, Comcast's implementation wasn't really respecting the promised lifetime of the prefix it was handing out. If my cable modem reset for any reason, ie a T4 timeout (which is a more than daily thing), it appeared the lease will be silently cancelled by the CMTS (Cable Modem Termination System) and the DHCPv6 client (an Airport Extreme) will be none the wiser and the IPV6 connection will be dead-dead. Looking into this on Comcast's KB and forums and other places, there are tons of complaints and bug reports out there about Comcast's IPV6 prefix delegations failing to renew when it naturally expires or whenever the modem resets causing IPV6 to drop.
I'm sure there is a "good" reason they are using busted set of patches and implementing IPv6 this way. They also rolled my CMTS back, it was just bad. As of Mid-Sunday... no more "native" IPv6 for me.
Someday.
