Multiple internet interruptions a day

My Internet gets multiple short interruptions for about 1-2 minutes per day and I'm getting no where with Xfinity tech support. All they want to do is run test remotely and when they get to it, the Internet is back to normal.

Does anyone actually able to get Xfinity to do anything about interruptions? I even changed modem and cable.

The same thing has been happening to me for about a week. I did get an email on Sep 17 warning me of expected outages: "Our most current information has us starting work in your area on 09/24...". But it started around then and has been flaky ever since. At least one outage nearly every single day. I've had several today. They don't last long, but are super annoying. I'm good friends with my neighbors and have to use their wifi when this happens. They use T-Mobile internet and apparently don't have this problem, so I THINK I MIGHT SWITCH TO T-MOBILE.

Hey @user_wc63u6, Thank you for visiting our official Xfinity Forums Community support page. We greatly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience regarding the Xfinity Internet services. I would be more than happy to offer my assistance looking into this further for you.

 

Are you experiencing issues while there is an active service interruption? During a service interruption, services may be intermittent or not working while repairs and maintenance is being performed. 

 

Are you currently experiencing issues so we can assist in troubleshooting and is there no active service interruption taking place?

Hello,

To answer your question, it happens when there's no service outage.

Here's an update: During my last call to the tech support, after they spent an hour testing and telling me nothing is wrong, I requested to have a technician appointment to check the physical line.

The technician came and checked everything and finally stars aligned and the problem actually showed up while he was here. It turned out, the connector attached to the wall plate is causing all the problems.

So, if you have issues like I had, please insisted on a technician appointment and have them check everything.

Thank you so much for the update user_wc63u6! Happy to hear that everything is sorted out. It sounds like POE filter was on there, that is a tool a tech can use, normally for TV as it prevents signal conflicts with other MoCA networks in the area, typically not needed with home internet. Our team is always here to help, we all have a lot of experience with troubleshooting these types of issues. We always want to make sure you get the best service and support!
