    Not long after facing consumer backlash for its newly implemented bandwidth caps, Comcast is at it again. Now, as Consumerist reports, the company's being put on display for interrupting a customer's web browsing experience to upsell one of its new modems. According to Comcast subscriber "BB," who contacted said website, the cable and internet giant recently reworked the network in his area, which has since led to a series of emails and calls reminding him to upgrade his modem. BB, however, owns his equipment, as opposed to renting it from Comcast for a monthly fee -- and he says it works perfectly.
