Though I joke about this, I did call comcast to tell them about it. Of course their tier two tech support probably doesn't know DHCP and DNS from a hole in the ground (at least this was my experience today)... Any guesses how long it takes for the trouble ticket to hit an engineers desk? I am placing a heavy weight on Tuesday, because it isn't super critical and the gears tend to turn slowly in the comcast machine.
Not sure what happened, but clearly a provisioning mistake made its way into production... All sorts of fun things entered my mind with what to do with 2048 public IPs... Could be some fun times on a unlimited symmetrical gigabit connection, but I won't abuse the situation. They surely will miss a couple thousand ip's from the pool. I remember when if you had a class c as a small business you were getting into some serious IT infrastructure, now maybe not so much.
Just something funny I thought I'd share... Enjoy.
