" I've been using Vonage over Comcast since late 2005, and I know of " quite a few others who are using 3rd party VoIP services over " Comcast without any issues. What were you doing that you found it " nearly impossible to get VoIP to work? Feel free to drop into the " .comcast newsgroup if you need help. I tested VOIP on Comcast and Sonic DSL. 100% unusable on Comcast; almost perfect on Sonic DSL. Specific network diagnosis tests revealed Comcast was introducing communications faults that specifically hurt VOIP more than any other communication method. I posted my results here; I forget what they were. Who knows why, and who knows why they didn't fix it? Perhaps because they're being anti-competitive. I don't know why your setup is fine, nor those of your friends.
