[GRLUG] Comcast & dynamic DNS

[Benjamin Flanders]

I haven't received that letter, but I didn't change my dns servers either.

I am not in the least knowledgeable in the area, so I believe I am
over qualified to answer your question:)
It seems logical that they know who is using their DNS servers. and
iof you haven't used them but you are active, then you must be using
someone elses.  Damn Users!!
