    Default Anyone work on the Comcast Business sales side?

    Have a couple of questions, may want to convert my internet at home over to a business account for the upload bandwidth and to get a static IP. Yes, I know I can do DDNS but want to discuss pros/cons with someone knowledgeable who can help make the switch happen if I decide to go that route.

    Basically, I just rolled my own Blue Iris camera system and will want to upload clips to off-site storage.

    Thanks in advance!

    I can have a rep contact you, but I dont see the need to change.

    The cost is going to be higher as well. A static is about $20/month by itself.

    Uploading full video and not alerts is a different story.

    Again, I can submit a form for a rep to contact you but I do not have any personal contacts in sales.

    Out of curiosity, how many cameras at what resolution are you wanting to upload?

    Do you record 24/7, or only on motion?

    Just curious.

    Stay away from CC business if you can... At any cost.

    For what you are wanting to do, an asus router with their free DDNS service will be simple, cheap, and work right...

    Comcast Business Static requires you to use a complete POS router-fawk-show...

    (Not aimed at 00tec, and I apologize in advance for the language, but this has been a huge PITA for our company, and is now costing us monthly revenue because their POS business router that you HAVE TO use to get static ip's doesn't do what it is supposed to.)

    No offense at all. I believe I remember your concerns with the equipment. (Since you have to use leased equipment for a static).

    I'm not working in business class anymore, but I believe that is still the rule.

    I don't know all the details, but a client (with expert help) is not having any luck getting inbound VPN services to work with a CC business router.

    Not surprised.

    We literally want it to just pass all traffic through and provide our static ip's... Nothing more. We basically can't ask it to do less...

    Can't do it without eff'ing it up.
