Frequent internet drops of 5-10 seconds approx every 15 minutes, interrupting online webcasts

I am experiencing frequent signal loss for 5-10 seconds every 15 to 20 minutes. This occurs during web conference calls. Issue has been goin on for several months. The xfinity assistance claims all of my settings are correct and system / service working fine. How do I get help resolving this? There is no way to report a more complicated issue through the assistant.

Connection works great, high speeds, no problems - until it cuts out for 5-10 seconds at a a time.  Other posts on the forum that report similar issues refer to an 'amplifier' installed in the street box.  I can't troubleshoot that.

What is the next step for getting service on this?

@user_bdmndn, Thanks for letting us know. I can understand the inconvenience caused by the frequent signal loss as a customer myself. I am sorry to learn about this experience. One way to troubleshoot this is via the XFINITY app. If you were to run an internet health test like in this link here via the Xfinity app, what results does it pull for you? After troubleshooting with the app, if the service issues still persist, does it let you schedule a technician appointment?

It does not let me schedule an appointment.  After following all the steps the issue still persists.

How can I get more help than just the assistant app?

I have sent a DM to xfinity support but do not have any reply.  Is there something else I need to do?
