I've been searching the forums and the Internet in general, today, as I have gotten my first notice from Comcast that, lo, I am over my 1 Terabyte limit, this month. It has been inching toward that m...
Curiousity: lots of people here all having an issue with Comcast/Xfinity -- possibly all starting in December -- based on recent package changes? I was in their 150Mbit tier for two years - NO problem. It would take us 28 or so days to come within 90% - and that's with three kids (gamer, video streamer, etc) AND two displays streaming HD content from Netflix. Then, we upgrade to their 400Mbit tier and bam - no behavior changes at home, yet, we somehow chew through 90% in 17 days. WTF? Xfinity can't show details on our usage because we don't have their equipment, and Netgear/Orbi doesn't support this critical feature in their high end mesh network product (RBR50 - AC3000) that covers 7500sqft and consistently great coverage/throughput. Anyone else seeing this? Please report this both to Netgear as a P1 feature request AND Xfinity/Comcast so they know there's an issue too.
Xfinity did send out notices in 2016 and 2017 that charge-per-gig was coming. Most people simply ignored it. Now they are enforcing it. So, that's why everyone is suddenly noticing this problem in the past several months.
Sure would be nice if anyone from Netgear would acknowledge this thread.
