Never ran into that problem with comcast or my router (Linksys). After comcast
got popped for forging disconnect packets they then moved on to port blocking.
About every two to three weeks of heavy use I'd find my ability to d/l or seed
to be almost gone. Change the port assignment in utorrent, change the setting
in the router - back in business.

Between that and issues with their cable service - I've moved on. Not perfectly
thrilled with AT&T U-Verse, but the internet is much better in my area.....
