    I'm having loads of problems with Gmail this morning, and Google searches seem very slow. Anyone else having problems with Google today?

    I wonder if this is a nationwide / worldwide issue or if it is a local one?

    I'm in Virginia, USA. Where are you others that are having the same issues?

    Comcast, southeast U.S.

    I've noticed it worst on Google, but it seems to be affecting a few other sites as well. I might have to just play video games today :D

    That makes 4 of us with the same problem and all of us have Comcast. I'm on the phone with them now, but they seem unaware of any issue...

    They're giving me the normal nonsense about checking firewalls, popup blockers, etc.

    I spoke with a Comcast rep. She tried to suggest all kinds of ridiculous solutions, including that I should call Microsoft to get support for I.E. (I'm using Firefox). LOL.

    She did say she would submit a report, but I'm not too optimistic they will take my complaint very seriously. Perhaps if all you others who are having the same issue can call and complain, enough reports will get submitted so that Comcast will have an engineer address the problem.

    Yeh, I know. Hopefully, though, we can get the tech support people to submit reports to the people who can actually do something. :p

    @adamjthompson, I need you to reboot your computer and unplug your modem from the wall, and wait 2 minutes before plugging it back in.
