Frequent outages

My WiFi frequently drops day to day, on no regular cadence. When I use the troubleshooting chat I just get the boilerplate "Try unplugging your router and plugging it back in" which works until it drops again a day later. How can I get better support for this issue and a more permanent fix?

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


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 in order to check it.


Or you can use their Xfinity App: https://www.xfinity.com/apps

No I open the Xfinity app when they happen and it reports "No outages in your area"

@user_u1gfkl Thanks for adding a post to the community. As well for checking the app, that means it's isolated to the home. Have you checked to make sure the cables are in good shape, and connected finger tight? Are you using a separate router?
