Lag?

no, I'm said that it wasn't exclusively a comcast thing as people thought it was at the beginning of the thread and also never not once said that the issue is on SE's end, just that it was likely, as it was before
but go off queen!

It can be a comcast issue even for people who dont have comcast as their ISP, if their ISP uses comcasts lines at some point. Not all ISPs own the full length of their connections, and even then, they have to connect outside the ISP at some point. This is likely where the bad node is, which is why it effects people not on comcast, and people who have comcast.

And yes, you did in fact say "its most likely an issue on SE's servers that didn't effect everyone"

I'm simply trying to correct misconceptions on how people connect to things over the internet, as many don't seem to understand how it all works, and SE takes the brunt of the blame for things completely out of their control most of the time.

Very very few instances exist these days where the servers themselves are the issue, and we get updates on those when they happen via the lodestone.
