Comcast’s HD
Comcast’s HD degradation was my primary motivation for switching to Knology recently. Yesterday NYT has an article on Comcast’s HD. The degradation was especially noticeable watching sports, particularly football.
See my earlier post on Knology’s internet service.
Knology network blocked by Microsoft (sometimes)
Isn’t this great. I switch to Knology from Comcast for cable internet at home which otherwise seems just fine plus being $20 cheaper, but now I just discovered that Microsoft blocks Knology’s network from some of their sites.
For example https://mbs.microsoft.com/customersource/ gives me this message:
“You are not authorized to view this page
The Web server you are attempting to reach has a list of IP addresses that are not allowed to access the Web site, and the IP address of your browsing computer is on this list.”
Annoying since that’s a site I use as a professional resource.
Update the next day:
I can access the website mentioned above now. Interesting.
