Just in case you missed it, I would echo Brielle's earlier advice: please try forcing both laptop and the FE it's plugged into to 100/Full, auto disabled, and try your tests again.  I feel like this thread has developed an unhealthy fixation with the GE <-> Comcast segment when it's just as likely that it's working perfectly fine and the problem is between Laptop <-> FE. :-)

For whatever reason, I have historically had very bad luck/experience with 7200 FE interfaces and auto-negotiation, FWIW.
