I've noticed some sites aren't loading or loading slow today. Other sites are loading quickly. Something is going on.

Why is Comcast always the last provider to allow things like this? Redzone is a channel that only broadcasts a few hours, one day a week, for four months that we pay $10 a month for. It's ridiculous to not be able to stream that outside our home network, like every other major provider allows.
It always seems like Comcast is always behind on things like this. Look at HBO Go. Most providers provided access to HBO Go on all devices when it was avaialble, yet Comcast dragged their feet on many popular devices like the PS3 and PS4 for years. People have been asking for BeIN Sports in HD for years and nothing has come of that. People have been asking for Fox Sports 2 for years with no result. Ironically, FS2 is the only place to see some of the events of the NASCAR Xfinity series, a series that Xfinity pays for the naming rights.

It looks like at least half of the 24 Hours of LeMans coverage is on FS2. I can stream it on my laptop but I would much rather watch it on my TV with surround sound. I'm surprised that I can stream it on Fox's site since we don't get the channel and Comcast seems to not allow some streaming services like BeIN Sports.

I contacted BeIN Sports over the weekend because I didn't see this weekend's MotoGP race listed. They told me it was being shown live on their streaming service. I went to their site and I'm sure everyone can guess what happened. Comcast wasn't listed as a participating provider. Luckily I was able to catch a later replay of the race.
Why is Comcast so slow to add services that every other provider is able to? Last year, I tried to watch NFL Red Zone channel on line and Comcast isn't a participating provider. Instead, Comcast offered some cheesy workaround that looked like absolute garbage on my laptop. I heard they now allow HBO Go to be used on the Playstation but that was years after every other provider offered it.

I hope the summer rumor is true. Im tired of watching MotoGP in SD. I don't even get the Spanish channel in my area in HD so that's not an option.

I was able to access Redzone throuigh your link but the quality is terrible. It's like that on all channels. The video is really choppy and hard to watch. I've used this to stream other chanlles while I'm in a hotel and have not had any issues. I would think using this while on my home network would be even better and smoother. I've also streamed a lot of sports the past couple of months to my laptop while I'm at home and have had almost zero issues. If I could stream directly from the NFL website, I imagine it would be nice and smooth too.
Why is Comcast always the last company to reach these agreements? I'm still waiting on a lot of other channels to be avaiable and apps like HBO Go to work on all platforms. Yet just about every other cable company seems to have no issues bringing these channels and services to their customers. It's a shame since I do thing you have a good thing with the X1 system.

It is very frustrating. It's crazy how many things vitually every other company provides that Comcast doesn't. BeIN HD is just one of them along with Fox Sports 2. They don't offer online access to NFL Red Zone or HBO Go on PS3 & PS4. These services have been offered for years in some cases on other providers.

It's interesting and fishy that my internet usage doubles once these caps are announced. I was consistantly using less than 300 GB for a while. My May usage was 294 GB for example. In june, it jumped up to over 500 GB even though my family was out of town for a week. In July, we supposedly used over 600 GB. We don't think we've been using our internet any more than we have in the past. We still are quite a bit under the 1 TB limit but it's concerning that our usage has suddenly increased once caps are implemented.

Add me to the list of people who want to see this channel in HD. It's disappointing to have to watch MotoGP in SD. It's crazy that this has been going on for 3 years and Comcast hasn't added it in HD.

The 24 Hours of LeMans is on this weekend. Looks like I will be missing most of it, including the start because Comcast still doesn't carry Fox Sports 2. Look at this schedule: Saturday, June 13 (8:30 a.m. to 12 p.m., FOX Sports 2) Saturday, June 13 (7 p.m. to 8 p.m., FOX Sports 1) Saturday, June 13 (11 p.m. to 12:30 a.m., FOX Sports 2) Sunday, June 14 (3:30 a.m. to 7:30 a.m., FOX Sports 1) Sunday, June 14 (7:30 a.m. to 9 a.m., FOX Sports 2) Sunday, June 14 (9 a.m. to 9:30 a.m., FOX Sports 1) It's very disappointing that Comcast won't add this channel.

Whenever it goes to 2.0, it never goes back to 5.1 without me turning off the box. I would notice that the NCAA tournament games would show as 2.0 on my receiver. That seemed odd that CBS wouldn't be broadcasting the games in 5.1. If I turned the box on and off, they would be back in 5.1. It happens on other channels too.

I'm having issues where the sound will be 5.1 and then it will revert to 2.0. I'm running HDMI to a Denon receiver and from the receiver to the TV. It seems to do it when I switch inputs back to cable from a Xbox One. My receiver only 2 HDMI inputs and 1 HDMI output. It might be losing 5.1 at other times but it's hard to tell. I just will notice that the receiver will only show it is receiving 2.0 sound. If I check the settings on the cable box, it is always set to surround. This is on the master box. Turning the box off and on with the button on the front fixes the issue. That is annoying to have to do that every day so the sound works properly. Hopefully there is a fix for the problem.

I checked channels 111 and 112 and neither of them are Fox Sports 2. The MotoGP season starts this weekend and it is on Fox Sports 2. Normally it is on Fox Sports 1 but NASCAR is being shown on that channel and regular Fox according to my guide. Why can't I get Fox Sports 2? When will it be added?

The HBO GO app is in beta for the Xbox One per some websites. I found this info on Reddit about who can activate it at the moment.: "Per the activation site: AT&T U-verse TV ,Bright House Networks, Charter, Cox, DIRECTV, DIRECTV PUERTO RICO, DISH, Mediacom, Midcontinent Communications, Optimum, RCN, Suddenlink, Time Warner Cable, Verizon FiOS, and WOW!" I guess I'm not really surprised Comcast isn't listed. I hope Comcast gets their act together and is ready to let us use this app when it goes live. We shouldn't have to wait like we did with the 360. Comcast still doesn't support this app on the PS3 after several months.
