Re: Sudden extremely slow internet speeds (<5MBPS)

Having a tech come out these days means nothing.

 

Tech #1:

- replaced line from box to house

- replaced line through house to splitter

- replaced line from splitter to modem

Worked for 2 days (weekend) then back to <5mbps with my router dropping

 

Tech #2:

- replaced all the connections

- blamed my modem

- replaced with new exact modem (SB8200) - still same issue

- replaced with new Netgear CM1000 - still the same issue

 

Tech #3:

- said they were stumped

- call into to someone and was told "watch tower" indicated house 2 doors down was causing all the problems

- talked to the neighbor and he was having no issues. Agreed to call for service check

- he called for service check and they said he had no issues and wouldn't come out

 

3 weeks into this nightmare my internet still stinks and doesn't allow me to work from home. Comcast has no solutions. Mostly an issue M-F and 8-5pm.

 

Very frustrating and not sure what to do. One or 2 more days like this and I guess I have to try AT&T...

If you've already done some basic troubleshooting as outlined by Internet Troubleshooting Tips, please post your modem stats here so we can figure out what's going on.

It continues to drop and reconnect, but the modem lights look good.

When it reconnected I was able to post this back and this is what I get right now:

Those signals don't look good at all. As you've had a technician visit, plus line replacements, I'm going to escalate this thread to an official Comcast representative. Please stand by as an offical reply will be forthcoming.
