If you were an earlier ATTBI customer, try setting up your newsreader with "netnews.comcast.net" as the server.

Gracias. That seemed to do the trick. Funny that they never let me know about that when they switched over to comcast. Now to test to see if it really is unlimited.

Yep, I was upgraded in October here in Mobile, AL. Very nice speeds, consistent 400k downloads. Thank you very much Comcast. They've also forgotten to take off my 35$ campaign discount that was only supposed to last for the first three months, and in the letter stating they were upgrading to 3.0 they said my discount was over, but alas after two months its still there...15 bucks for 3.0 Mbps aint too shabby

most likely you'll use a PC, which will have a NIC (10/100) - most likely 100Mbps, which you share with thousands of other students ... go figure!

does comcast have a limit to hoe much you can up/download a month?
Nope!
I wish that were true. The fact is that Comcast has a secret download limit that they don't tell anyone. They will just suspend service right out of the blue if you download too much.
