Well, remember what i said about Google Map resolution going down
about a factor of 8?
Well i moved and Comcast changed my service ("upgrade") due to change
of account.
So now they are giving me a higher data rate which requires Docsis3.1
and that killed the use of my modem for telephone service.
Internet still works; operationally drags a bit tho.
I think Comcast did this on purpose, so i will have to get that ONE
Docsis 3.1 cable modem that supports Ethernet and voice but NOT WiFi.
That way, i can have my telephone back!
Pisses me off no end.
Why do I insist on WiFi? To support my "smart" phone in this "1-3
bar" environment.
