Internet freezes logging into comcast

[GWILKS]

About a few weeks ago I couldn't access my Comcast email anymore because when I tried to open the Page off stock browser it would load a tiny bit, then loose Internet connection and the acceleramator would stop no matter how long I waited.
I gave up on trying a downloaded the comcast Xfinity app. It sucks and is a pain in the ass so I tried to get into my email through browser again. Still didn't work.

So I tried downloading a new browser to see if that helped. Nope, still quits out once I hit log in..
Here's a cropped screen shot of where it always quits.

Any suggestions on what to do/try in order to fix this??

I use Gmail to check my ISP email (cox). In Gmail you can assign it a color, so you can tell the difference in the Gmail app right away.

So I can set my Comcast emails to come through my Gmail?

What I do is forward all my email to my Gmail then assign a color to it. I think of it as a unified in box...... Aol, msn, yahoo, whatever I check one and done

Why is the Xfinity app. a pain in the ass? I've been using it for my Comcast e-mail with no problems. It isn't much good for anything else though.

The way he's suggesting ... yes, you'd need to look for a forwarding option somewhere in your Comcast email settings.

Because with the browser I could just click on my attached work schedules and it would send it to the obvious downloads section where I could easily access it anytime after. With the app it sends it somewhere else and I can never find it. I tried sending it to multiple areas but still no luck. So every time I need to look at the file I have to re download it and hit "preview" off the app.
Also it closes itself out whenever I click something the first time. Say I open the app, go to delete a few spam emails so I hit menu>select...then it closes. I have to re open then it'll work.

Ok I did something like that with my college email's to be forwarded to comcast. I'll have to snoop around and try to find it in here.

And what do you by "the way he's suggesting"? Is there an easier or better way?

Just set Gmail up to check your comcast email. You need a few things from comcast, their pop3 and smtp servers, and your password.

Go to gmail on a computer (it's easier).

Go to settings, then accounts and import tab.

In the middle is a section called Check mail from other accounts using Pop3, click on add pop3 account you own

In that pop up, put in your info it asks for

When your done, on the side in your gmail, you should have a folder for your comcast email. There is a little colored box, click on that and you can change the label. This color shows up on your phone as well, so it's easy to tell the difference between accounts.

Good luck

Comcast app doesn't even work at a now.. It acts as normal, but won't load any new emails. Now I have to check them through my comp which I don't get on too often

If it helps, your way ahead of me. I wish I could log into my cable service providers website with my phone. Webpage opens fine but when I try to log in. All I get is pop up telling me there's to many server redirects to continue. Annoys the living pee outta me.

Just a thought here, Verizon wants you to have issues with all other cable providers

I've pondered that for awhile, now. Sure seems rather feasible considering I had nary a blip doing it previously.

I think you can give gmail your comcast credentials and it will maintain a connection or connect every now and again to pull your email.
