Today there have been confirmed network problems with Comcast outages in the Bay Area. After calling them, they said no outage on the phone, but the Live Chat from their web site, they said there WERE outages in my area.However, they'd rather hide that fact from you, even on their "Network Health" page for 408 area code, they claim "Healthy!At this time, your Comcast High-Speed Internet service is operating normally. Check back frequently. Network Health updates for your area will be posted here."Now, what is the point of a Network Status page, that doesn't report when there's an outage? Well, the only conclusion I can come to is that they don't want the negative publicity. So that's why I'm posting. If they didn't try to trick everybody, I wouldn't have had a problem.

Hosting uptime refers to the percentage of time the host is accessible via the internet. Many providers state that they aim for at least 99.9% uptime (roughly equivalent to 45 minutes of downtime a month, or less), but there may be server restarts and planned (or unplanned) maintenance in any hosting environment, which may or may not be considered part of the official uptime promise.
