Advantages of the business plan:<p>- I can usually get directly to someone clued on the phone, who doesn&#x27;t make me jump through hoops or silly scripts to debug a problem; they realize I&#x27;ve already done everything possible on my end already before calling (spent years working for ISPs).<p>- No blocked ports, I host my own server and do my own email, web hosting, etc.  Comcast even provides reverse dns for my five static IPs.<p>- No data caps.  In fact, they don&#x27;t even measure usage for business accounts.<p>Other than when I had a physical problem (short in the line from the pole to my house), I&#x27;ve always gotten the speeds that I pay for - in this case 50Mbps down, 10Mbps up.<p>Disadvantages to business class:<p>- I pay $150&#x2F;month for 50&#x2F;10 and five statics.<p>- It&#x27;s Comcast.<p>I was an ATT UVerse customer (standard, not business) before switching to Comcast Business about 4-5 years ago, but their max speed offering was only around 18Mbps down, and their &quot;business class&quot; service required the same craptastic 2Wire gateway and static IPs required 1-to-1 NAT through that gateway... No thanks.
