Internet connection drops every 30 minutes

At 20 min and 50 minutes of the hour (example 9:20 and 9:50) my internet cuts out. My wife and I both work from home and every hour at 20 minutes and 50 minutes our zoom calls say unstable connection and pause for a couple of minutes.  I have a netgear nighthawk R6900v2 wifi router and a Arris surfboard SB6183 modem.

Hello @zipbug and thank you for bringing this connectivity concern to our attention here at the Xfinity Community Forums. I can only imagine how frustrating these multiple interruptions would be every hour on your connection. 

Do you know how long ago this issue started? Have you attempted resetting the modem completely lately while unattached from the separate router? Does this only happen on wirelessly connected devices, or have you also seen this on devices connected via Ethernet cable?

The issue has been happening for months, I'm not sure the exact date. It happens on both hard wired and wireless connections and I've tried reseting the modem as well.

When resetting the modem, are you going through the troubleshooting steps within the Xfinity App?

I no longer work for Comcast.

Hey @zipbug thank you for using our app to access and troubleshoot your services. This in fact is a great way to isolate the service troubles and also resolve many connection issues. It is concerning that the issues still persist. I am here and will make sure we get this resolved together.

Could you please send our team a direct message with your full name and full address?

 Our team can most definitely take a further look at this issue.

 To send a "Direct Message" to Xfinity Support:

 Click "Sign In" if necessary

 Click the "Direct Messaging" icon or https://comca.st/3EqVMu7 

Click the "New message" (pencil and paper) icon

 The "To:" line prompts you to "Type the name of a person". Instead, type "Xfinity Support" there

 

 - As you are typing a drop-down list appears. Select "Xfinity Support" from that list

 

 - An "Xfinity Support" graphic replaces the "To:" line

 Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window

 Press Enter to send it

 See https://comca.st/3KQF8q9r for an example.

I no longer work for Comcast.
