• 5 phone calls, 2 hours, and I still can't get 3 ports opened

  Method #1: For the record you should be able to login to the comcast Gateway, click on Advanced, click on port forwarding, and open the ports there but instead there is a message from comcast saying that has moved to xfinity.com/myxfi. When you follow that link it says "Sorry this page no longer exists" and you get automatically redirected to https://internet.xfinity.com/. Source: 9 months ago

• Not without the Xfi App

  No errors, just a page that reads: "Managing your home network settings is now easier than ever. Visit xfinity.com/myxfi to set up port forwards, among many other features and settings." When going to the suggested web site, a forward to the site https://internet.xfinity.com/ happens. This is the site to download the Xfi App. Source: over 1 year ago

• "No devices connected to network" port forward failure

  I've been trying to set up a port forward through the app that is supposed to "simplify the user experience". Yet, due to an error in the app it is showing there are 0 devices available. This is untrue; 10.0.0.1 shows 6, all of which are able to connect to the internet. To add insult to injury, the hour I spent on the phone with a tech ended after I was guided to the now defunct port forwarding section in 10.0.0.1... Source: over 1 year ago

• Port Forwarding error "We are having some trouble"

  For the last few weeks I've been struggling with this port forwarding error, "We are having some trouble." I can't access either the webpage setup (internet.xfinity.com) OR the Xfinity app port forwarding section, as both throw the same error. Source: about 2 years ago

• Local IP not updating for port forwards

  Unrelated but why is internet.xfinity.com being taken away? If it's a corpo answer of security or ease of use I don't want to hear it. Source: about 2 years ago

• Just a reminder that WhatsApp is also owned by Facebook

  Meaning, you can go to public instances like searx.me,. Here's the documentation on how to start it up. But , you dont have to trust Searx that they are good people nor do you have to trust their data habits like DDG. Source: about 2 years ago

• Instead of lashing out at duckduckgo for doing what they think is best, ask the deeper question of why we’re all still using centralized services and being disappointed when they behave in a predictably centralized way.

  Consider a future where something like https://searx.me/ is as ubiquitous as Tor. Source: over 2 years ago

• DDG, once a hero has now fallen.

  For those looking for a replacement for Duckduckgo; I would highly recommend using Searx. It's an open source privacy respecting search engine with many decentralized private instances you can swap between. The link I sent is the primary instance, but here is a link with dozens more, and my own private instance. Source: over 2 years ago

• DuckDuckGo is out. I guess I'll try Brave Search.

  The most based solution: Https://searx.me. Source: over 2 years ago

• Uh oh.. What will the vaccinated think of this news?

  Searx.me and Startpage.com are the best search engines right now that are anti-censorship and anti-bias. Source: over 2 years ago
