I've Been Experiencing Packet Loss, I Need a Technician to Come Check My Line

I've Been Experiencing Packet Loss, I Need a Technician to Come Check My Line.  Xfinity Assistant will refuse to connect you with an agent no matter what you say and there is no way on the website to simply submit a ticket.  I have already replaced my modem and router and upgraded and even connecting directly from one PC to the modem the issue persists.

Last time I had to call and threaten to cancel in order to get through to anyone.  What is my best method going forward for actual support to my issue?

user_iqpdqv Hello, and thank you for reaching out via our Xfinity Community Forums. I completely understand your frustration. Packet loss is a real headache, and it's so incredibly annoying when you've already tried everything on your end. I've been there myself, and it's just draining.

 

It sounds like you've been incredibly thorough, replacing your modem, router, and even testing a direct connection. That definitely points to an issue with the line itself, and you do need a technician to take a look. I'm so sorry you had to resort to threatening cancellation last time just to get some help; that's not how it should be.

 

Let's see if we can find a better way forward for you. I'd really like to help get a technician scheduled and get this packet loss resolved. To do that, could you please send me a direct message with your full name, address, and the best phone number to reach you? I'll do my best to get someone out there to take a look at your line.
