10. If you have more than one egg, you need more than one basket.

Having all your connections to the world going through one critical point is dangerous.

My personal experience with Comcast over the last 15 years has been uniformly positive. When I call for service, which has only happened twice, they came out the next day and fixed the problem quickly.

That said, I would never, ever, in a million years, put all my eggs in one basket.

On edit: BTW: posting where "Comcast" will see it, you should know, there is nobody named Comcast. There is a system, and the system does not, and never will care. Nobody as Comcast is going to feel sorry for you, or feel offended that you have been inconvenienced. Just work the system the best you can, and be happy that everything works just fine 99.99% of the time.

Change what you can. Accept what you can't. Recognize the difference.
