How to Fix Comcast Internet Packet Loss and High Latency

Are you using bandwidth-intensive applications such as online gaming, streaming or VoIP calls? In these situations, extreme or even intermittent packet loss is your enemy. This is usually generated by network congestion. You will surely recognize the presence of packet loss while streaming on Twitch or playing Fortnite when you’re dropping frames and you get choppy video due to bitrate fluctuations.

Comcast is one of the big players in the US when it comes to Internet service providers. Unfortunately Comcast Internet packet loss is a real issue that is affecting gamers and streamers everywhere. However, there’s a solution to all this, which has been confirmed by many members of online gaming community: Speedify!

Read below to see how Speedify can help fix Comcast internet packet loss.

The first thing you should do when you encounter Comcast / Xfinity Internet packet loss is check your Internet connection health with Comcast’s own speed test tool or a network diagnostics tool. You may run speed and latency tests just to discover that due to network congestion, faulty or outdated hardware or even software bugs, the bitrate of your Internet connection is fluctuating and even dropping at times, which automatically generates packet loss while live streaming or online gaming using Xfinity Internet.

So, then, you might want to take this up with Comcast, but that won’t always fix your issue, and it’ll certainly not be a fast fix. Resetting your modem, router and network adapters might lower the rate temporarily, but eventually if you’re getting a lossy Internet connection, you’ll be right where you started, with high Comcast Internet packet loss rates.

Speedify is a fast bonding VPN service that uses channel bonding technology to combine multiple Internet connections at the same time into one super pipe for increased bandwidth and reliability, while lowering latency and minimizing Comcast Internet packet loss.

The secret lays in Speedify’s fast error correction features, even with just one Internet connection. It instantly detects when a network packet has been lost, and resends it before the Internet protocol realizes that. Thereby, Xfinity slowdowns are prevented before they occur.

In the tests we’ve ran with Speedify, even on a single link you’re largely shielded from damages caused by losing over 1% of the packets. More impressive still, at 5% packet loss the throughput over Speedify is well over double that of regular TCP. And this goes on while also keeping your private information safe!

Naturally, if you’re using Speedify to combine multiple Internet connections the throughput is even higher for the same packet loss level than while not running Speedify, delivering over triple the performance with just 2 bonded connections.
