The said googling was done on a mobile device since I couldnt connect to any games, any ineternet browsers, or anything that involved an internet connection. Yet my internet connection was "Online" at the time...

I recommend OpenDNS (https://www.opendns.com/) over Google DNS for a public DNS alternative. But either way both are 101% better then comcast's DNS.
OpenDNS inserts advertisements into web pages you view.

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/OpenDNS inserts advertisements into web pages you view.
That should work well enough unless the page can't load without the ads for some reason.

It is resolving the problem for most Comcast users, but Gravity need to liaise with Comcast to find a permanent solution.

Read FAQ on the page and it says "Google Public DNS is a free, global Domain Name System (DNS) resolution service, that you can use as an alternative to your current DNS provider." So it seems free but feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

I haven't read through the whole google dns page and was wondering if someone knows if you do have to pay to set up google dns because the poster above me seems to think so. Thanks.

Google Public DNS is completely free.

I was also having problems with pandora getting stuck between songs and hulu commercials freezing and requiring me to refresh it. Swapping to google DNS fixed both of those problems as well.
Honestly Comcast is a piece of company.
Thank you for this thread.

I don't see why people still use Comcrap, despite all the warnings.
Have you ever considered that some people just don't have the luxury of having other options? :
