Is that why FR was so excruciatingly slow for me late morning and early afternoon (on Comcast)?

Level 3 admits it is them:
Level 3 Network Ops @Level3NOC On Nov. 6, our network experienced a disruption affecting some IP customers due to a configuration error. All are restored

All three use the same hill outside of Denver to up-link to satellites. And they all have large internet wires going from that hill, as well as common satellites.

Being a Comcast customer, I suspect the issue is with the wiring *inside* of our house.
Step 1 of the Comcast "tech" playbook. Step 2: Go back to Step 1.

And this is why it is so important for the Internet to remain a "distributed" and "redundant" system. Putting all our stock in thousands of small providers means small outages in localities. Putting all our stock in a handful of large providers means large outages on a national level. I'll take an inefficient yet highly redundant system over the highly controllable efficient alternative any day.

Level 3 has been having a hard time lately.
Either someone really smart has it out for them or their network is falling apart due to age.
I don't know which yet.

About Comcast-— why oh why have they discontinued their Weatherscan channel 101? I cannot find a reason or a way to contact them directly. I am devastated.

Yeah, things were going as slow as an oxen-pulled cart in a third-world country earlier today.

I actually did a viral scan of everything on my computer to make sure there wasn’t a virus slowing things down.

I was also considering that it could have been a DOS attack or Comcast was giving preferential treatment to higher-paying customers than me.
