Using tools available (netcat), I've determined that UDP port 123 packets 
are being truncated at 1472 bytes. Rebooted router, timeserver, no change. 
Comcast strikes again with an arbitrary new policy that accomplishes 
nothing. I'll make a vain attempt to reach somebody at comcast that would 
understand the issue, but in past experience they never budge once they 
put a new arbitrary and undocumented policy in place.
