Slow internet and random disconnects

Is anyone experiencing ultra slow internet speed, random disconnects, and streaming interrupts? I've run virus, malware, optimization software to ensure that it is not my laptop causing the problem. 

My new install (we moved last month) is entirely wi-fi. The modem is about 20 feet away on the same floor where the main TV is (living room); I'm down the hall in our office.

Almost any operation I initiate (clicking on email, starting an app, etc.) results in the system 'clocking'. Even when I log-in to Xfinity dashboard, I routinely get a 'can't connect' message (example attached).

Any insight is appreciated! Thanks, Steve

I've re-booted several times with no resolution.

The link that was given indicates to use the recipient's name in the "Send to."

That won't work for messaging employees. You need to use the name Xfinity Support as was stated.

Hi EG, any idea how long after I submit a tech support request to @Xfinity Support I should expect a return answer? Wondering if there is a normal response time these days for these questions....

Thanks,
Steve

I've been having massive disconnect problem for years, but just this week compared Comcast Service with Verizon.  See my attached comparison.

I think part of the problem is that my node is overloaded, and has been for years.  One technician reported the problem to engineering with no results or feedback.  A second told me that engineering doesn't listen to them and they takk the flack from customers!  Good luck!

@Jack_J12​ 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/3KQF8q9 for an example.
