Intermittent internet connection on some devices
I couldn't find this exact problem after searching the community. I have a C7000 modem/router installed about 2 months ago. I have three devices hardwired to it, and run a wifi network for the rest o...
You can do the router side of the CAX80, the ISP, if they support it, may update the modem side as they would be responsible for the mode side.
How is the wifi configured on the modem?
What channels are being used?
What is the size of the home?
Any wifi features enabled or disabled on the modem? Like Smart Connect?
I have both a 2ghz and 5ghz WiFi set up. The house isn't very large. I have one computer which has this problem sitting next to another computer which does not have the problem. I would suspect the network adapter in the computer except that another computer in a different room is showing the same issue. No features turned on or off on the modem/router. Regular internet is through Spectrum, but I have a backup connection through Verizon Wireless running WiFi under a different name. If I switch to that WiFi, there is no problem. Again, Spectrum could find no issue on their side. It's just odd that this problem affects two computers but not the others. As I said before, rebooting the modem/router "fixes" the problem. The next time the problem occurs, I am going to try a reset of the network adapters
Thanks for responding
