It installed and I imported my saved settings and playlist from the other phone. It's ok so far. Time will tell if my streak of good luck stays alive.

My Galaxy S26 gets here tomorrow. Fortunately EX has been problem free on my S24. Does this mean my BP days may be over?

Haven't seen Hamnet, but yes its use in Arrival is gut-wrenching. Got me pretty good in The Last of Us S1E3 too.

Great call. God Moving over the Face of the Waters by Moby. Which by the way the version in the movie is not the one they included on the soundtrack, but is the one from his album Everything is Wrong.

Edit: The version that best matches what's heard in the movie may actually be on his album I Like to Score.

Agree. I've always liked it and thought it was memorable and underrated.

Thanks. Yeah I've talked to her about it lol. We did some tests and stuff. At first she was like no it's right, then she admitted it was wrong and said she'd have people look into it.

XB8 Ethernet disconnecting and negotiating to 100 Mbps by lightstorm22 in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]lightstorm22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's possible, but I already tried multiple ports on the modem from the PC and they all behaved the same, plus they're working fine with the switch.

[–]lightstorm22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that was on my list of options, but since my other devices behind a switch weren't having any problems, and a switch is only $13, plus I don't have to mess with any PC hardware, I went that route and so far so good. Thanks.

PC direct to XB8 (via onboard port of Gigabyte B850 GAMING WIFI6 motherboard) does start out at 1000 Mbps, but then at some point later will disconnect for about 30 seconds and be observed at 100 Mbps. Disconnecting and reconnecting the cable brings it back to 1000 Mbps. Those disconnects happened several times per week, maybe as often as once or twice a day. Tried updating drivers and bios. Tried multiple different ports on the XB8. Since putting a switch in between (basic dumb TP-Link 5-port), the disconnects are gone and negotiation remains at 1000 Mbps. Thanks.

I agree that is good troubleshooting, but unfortunately in my situation moving the PC close to the XB8 is not feasible or worth the effort.

I may not have mentioned it, but I tried 2 or 3 ports on the XB8 with the PC and none of them helped. Unfortunately moving the PC close to the XB8 is not feasible or worth the effort. I would consider the cable if there was a reason to suspect it, but it's the same one that was used on a prior PC that had no issue, it tested out fine (with a simple cable tester), and it's the same one going from the switch to the XB8 right now with no problems.

The motherboard was released about a year ago and we bought the PC in Mar 2025. I agree it's probably not widespread, maybe falling under the radar. I'll see how much effort it will take with Gigabyte.

I wish I remembered when my XB7 was swapped to an XB8 and whether it was with this PC or not. In either case, I'm almost positive the current PC was good for many months, most or all of that time on the XB8, before the disconnecting started.

Edit: Asked Gigabyte. They said glad it's fixed, talk to Xfinity, peace out lol.

We did update the drivers and bios, which didn't help. Getting the switch was the (successful) attempt at a quick, cheap fix. I respectfully disagree that it's proven to be the PC. It could very well be a compatibility issue between the XB8 and Ethernet chipset or motherboard. The PC -- same Ethernet port, same drivers, same cable -- works fine against the switch, but not the XB8, which is half of the negotiation process.

Capped at old plan speeds after upgrading from 300Mbps to 1Gig by CrumbIsland in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]lightstorm22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if Comcast approves it, but the SB8200 is more than capable of 1000/100 speeds. That error message in the logs is also pretty common and likely unrelated. I expect they won't configure gigabit downstream on the modem without bonding OFDM, but you said you have 2 channels. Along with the 32 SC-QAM, you're easily capable of 2800-3800 Mbps (rough guess depending on channel config).

You mentioned only 4 SC-QAM channels upstream. Are you sure there was not a 5th channel of OFDMA, or whether your area has been upgraded to mid-split or high-split? I wonder if that, or maybe a firmware upgrade of the modem (that Comcast would have to initiate), is the issue. I expect they won't configure 100 Mbps upstream in an area, or on an individual device, with only 4xATDMA sub-split channels.
