Frequent outages

There have been at least 5 internet outages in my neighborhood in less than one week. There have also been a much higher number of them in the past few months. Prior to that there were very very few. Why is this happening, is it a temporary situation, and is it being resolved?  Too many of your customers rely on this service for school and/or work, myself included.

First. When these outages occur are they being officially indicated here with any info about them ?;


https://www.xfinity.com/support/status 


Use a cell phone internet service, a public WiFi hotspot, or a neighbor's internet if you need to to check it.

@EG​ yes they are being reported as outages on the Xfinity status page. They are listed as unplanned outages and list a time the service is expected back, which is usually a few hours. The service does get restored usually in that timeframe. My question is why is is going down repeatedly , a few times per day, many days in a row?

I'm afraid that I can't answer that, sorry. Perhaps a Comcast employee can ?

Another outage again this morning 9:30am mountain time. What on earth is going on, this is NOT ACCEPTABLE. The status page shows an outage message, but why have there been multiple outages over the past week?  Can someone please escalate this!!

I have also had at least 10 outages since the new year. It’s turning into an everyday occurrence. I have no idea why I am paying for a service I can’t use. I can’t complete my work for my job or school with this unreliable service.
