Because of this, I have corrected the information in the post to reflect the appropriate course of action. I apologize for the misunderstanding and the confusion and frustration that it may have generated.
You're not getting it.

YOUR ISP is the problem. NTT. They are the issue. As much as I enjoy blaming Comcast for everything from sun spots to hair loss, they aren't at fault here. If I open a ticket with Comcast telling them I'm having connection issues outside their network, they're going to rightly throw up their hands and ask what I expect them to do about it. YOU are the ones with the business relationship with NTT, not us, and not Comcast or Time Warner or Qwest or AOL or Mom'n'Pop's Super Internet Service.

Basically what you've said here is that SE has decided to take no action to correct the problems faced by nearly their entire American audience (north, south, and central). You've decided you'd rather just lose the subs than make an effort.
