Internet down several times everyday

I keep checking the router logs everytime the internet goes out and this is what I see. I had a tech visit and replace the router saying the one I had is known to have issues and that all else was fine but he didn’t check for noise or anything just left. Here’s what the logs show for just today. I feel like something else is going on but I’m no tech expert and can’t get a hold of one. Another tech is coming today. Hopefully he is more advanced then one a few days ago

@XfinityTimothyA @user_67125b

My response didn't send. The tech used a term I am not familiar with but outside my home in the cable box. It had something to do with the port the cable was plugged into? Sorry I know that's not much help.

Thanks for circling back with that update ! That is called the 'Tap'. They can be problematic and sometimes they need to be replaced. So is the problem resolved now ?

@EG​ Thanks for sharing the term. Yes, since he made the change. I've had no issues! Just in time for summer break. :)

Sorry to hear that....... You are going to need to get the techs involved again until this gets fixed properly.

Bear in mind that if the premises facing techs can not find or fix a problem at your home, it is they who are responsible for escalating it to their line / network / maintenance dept. techs. The problem may lie beyond your home in the local neighborhood infrastructure somewhere but it is their S.O.P. to start at the home. And if the problem is found to be on their side of the demarcation point, there will not be any charge.

you're connection is being disrupted on the main outside port device all the connections get plugged into. You need to have a tech come out and either switch which port your connection is plugged into and or add filters. One of the other connections has so much noise it is causing issues for your line and only shows up at the Port device location for your neighborhood. I had this exact same issue and after a month of research on my own and 3 different techs me telling the 3rd one what to do fixed this issue and has not been back since. Hope this helps.

@user_e2b984​ It’s been more reliable since the second tech noticed it but yes thank you. I will do that if the issue comes back.
