So last night, (Saturday) I was unable to connect to Steam. Instead of getting the normal rejection message, this was a little different and stated that Steam was unable to connect to the Steam servers..which appeared after about 40 seconds of it trying to connect.
I tried to ipconfig /release, /renew, bypass my router, all that. No change. Then I found this:

Anyone know a work around? SuperSully? :)

I'm seeing this too with the rig I have on my office on a cable modem. It may not be a Comcast issue, however, as from that tracert in the link you posted, at hop 10 the traffic is leaving the Comcast network and jumping over to Qwest/GBLX. It goes one more hop (again, on Qwest's network) and then it fails.
Here's the tracert to the same IP from my end:

I've found that this is the same IP my Steam client is trying to connect to also.

This appears to have been fixed. I just tried again and logged into Steam fine.
For comparison to above:

The missing link is at hop 14, "tuk-core-01.inet.qwest.net [67.14.4.106]"...that wasn't in the trace I did earlier.
