Connectivity Issues
I lose connectivity frequently and have to reset the modem router multiple times per week, sometimes daily, either by disconnecting the cable, power and/or hitting the reset button. My internet provider is Spectrum and it is not in an outage when I check. Is this an issue with modem router or internet provider?
Thanks
Please post a copy and paste of the modems connection status page.
Have the ISP check the signal and line quality UP to the modem. Be sure the ISP provisions the modem correctly.
Be sure there are no coax cable line splitters in the between the modem and ISP service box.
Be sure your using good quality RG6 coax cable up to the modem.
Be sure to power OFF the modem for 1 minute then back ON.
