Internet cutting out every night between 3AM-5AM

My internet, packaged along with my rental of Xfinity’s Gateway was installed literally 2 days ago at my studio. As the subject states, my internet will consistently cut out from 3AM-5AM. And when I say cut out, I mean the internet will stop working, the router’s lights will go out, just to boot back up in the next minute or so. While I know 2 days is hardly enough to call this a “pattern”, I have read enough about it on the web to see that other Xfinity customers have had this problem as well. I just want to get this addressed as soon as possible, as I am a student, and prone to being a night owl. It is extremely annoying, and something I did not expect after getting my internet installed literally 2 days ago. Any solutions?

The same thing has been happening to me for months mostly during the same time period, but it will also cut out at random times during the day. I've had several technicians out here. They replaced my modem, all of the lines and connections inside my house, and the line running to my house. A supervisor came out and said they've detected "noise" on the line that may be causing it, but they've done nothing to fix the issue.

@user_e5ee54 luckily I haven’t had problems during the day so far. I saw a message from Xfinity saying “We’ve detected performance issues with the network in your area and will be working to make improvements starting 09/14/2021 01:00 AM” So I’m hopeful that will fix my issues.

That's one of their default answers when I say that my internet connection dropped for the 1000th time this week. They say that they just finished maintenance in my area and that is the cause. That should never be the cause. I'm paying for continual service. My electricity doesn't completely shut off whenever the electric company is doing routine service in my area.

Hi there! I'd be glad to ensure that this gets looked into further and find out why you're having connection issues with your service. Please send a private message with your name, the complete service address (including city, state, ZIP, suite number, etc), and the phone or account number, and any pertinent details-- like the ticket number(s)-- so we can help. You can do this by clicking on the icon in the upper right corner of your screen and send a message to the shared handle "Xfinity Support"

The same thing has happened to me.  I moved to Colorado Springs in July 2021 and every single day, the internet turns off and reboots, exactly as you described, between 3am-5am.  I called requesting if it would be possible to change the “system maintenance” time to 11am-1pm and they said yes.  That was a month ago, nothing has changed.  Internet JUST came back on 10 min ago.  Ridiculous!!!

Hi, @user_618598 that would be very frustrating to experience a drop each morning. Are you experiencing connection lost any other time of the day? 

I no longer work for Comcast.

This has been happening to me for a month now. It is very inconvenient AND SCARY because my son is recently diagnosed with juvenile diabetis & has a blood glucose monitor connected to our phones. When the internet goes out, the connection is lost & not only that it stops monitoring, it alerts everyone at home & his father out of state. & wouldn’t  stop until it’s connected again. FOR 2-3 HOURS.  We don’t sleep until 6 am when it decides to fix itself. And we all have to wake up for work/school early. This is HORRIBLE!!!
