Outages in Sandy Springs/Atlanta

For the past 5 or so days there have been multiple outages to my service daily. I get notified and the app tells me that they are fixing a known outage in my area. They last anywhere from 10 minutes to an hour. I am wondering if there is any information about the cause of these and why they are happening so consistently.

Same thing here. In the Sandy Springs/Fulton area and I’ve had daily outages (sometimes more than once a day, with fix estimates up to several hours out) since Friday March 8th. I tried calling customer support (after having to hit 0 about six times before getting routed to an actual person) and they scrambled to give me any kind of solution or explanation, eventually settling on a power issue at the server center that required a generator. I don’t believe that at all. This is utterly ridiculous. Been a consistent customer with no complaints for the last 3 years; this current string of problems is inexcusable.

It's ridiculous. A power issue that required a generator that is taking them a over week to fix? I want to switch providers but unfortunately my apartment complex doesn't have too many to compete with the speeds Xfinity offers. I am thinking about settling for lower speeds because of this major inconvenience.

I am having a similar issue though xfinity won't classify it as an outage. I haven't had usable internet for over 24 hours now and it has been extremely intermittent since 3/15. I am only getting 0-3 mbps max out of my 1000 mbps plan.
