Comcast Internet Outage?
 
Is anyone besides me experiencing an internet outage with Comcast? Still have TV and Phone. I am in Santiago. Connected with Verizon right now.

I'm using Comcast now in Largo but earlier this week it went out for 30m or so.

I'm sure there's a huge load on the network now with everyone pushing the enter keys at once etc

No Comcast problem in Tamarind Grove.

Yesterday Comcast service was slow at my house near Lopez. Everything was freezing or delay, I suspected it will go out some after. Maude if did during the night, today no problems.

At Mallory Square, internet is still working.

I had to restart my modem this morning and that squared away all the issues I was having. Comcast has come a long way. If we ever needed them the time is now. There Outage Map shows you are not out rite now. Good Luck.

villagetinker 03-25-2020 04:53 PM

Ours was VERY slow, rebooted the modem and that took care of the issue.

Comcast
 
Yes, had outage for 5 minutes on Wednesday. At times very slow. TV went out also at the same time.

Skunky1 03-26-2020 05:49 AM

Got an antenna. No more outages

Used Comcast years ago. Nothing but issues. They should change their name to "Comout"! Now I'm with Spectrum for internet and Dish for TV. Zero problems.

I was hoping spectrum would be offered north of 466, could save money for some.

RMguy 03-26-2020 06:49 AM

TV out with “no signal” in 2 rooms. Tried rebooting several times, no such luck. I’m in Palo Alto village

davem4616 03-26-2020 06:56 AM

we have comcast for phone and internet (using Firestick for TV)…

it's been slow lately...in fact some days is like trying to drink a thick milk shake through a swizzle straw

yesterday the internet went suddenly went down

So I unplugged the router, waited a few minutes, plugged it all back in and once is cycled up we were back in business

One can only imagine the load that is being placed on Comcast's equipment with everyone staying home and trying to keep themselves occupied

I live south of 466A in the Village of Charlotte. For the last week, usually in the late a.m., early p.m. I have been experiencing outages with the internet. Usually it doesn't last long. It just happens all of a sudden.

Comcast Television can many times be helped by using "System Refresh" which is accessed through the "A" button on your remote.

rmd2 03-26-2020 09:44 AM

Spectrum

What is the reason Spectrum can't be north of 466?

bilcon 03-26-2020 09:50 AM

I have been with Comcast for 11 years and never had any problems. Great, fast internet with no interruptions during this busy time. Just my experience and I live between 466 and 466A.

EvelynEvagash 03-26-2020 04:34 PM

Internet is soooo slow. The curser on the computer spins and spins. So bad.

Because Comcast already laid the cable north of 466A. So they have to consider the expense laying their own cable and how many people will switch from Comcast and Century Link. I know I wouldn't switch, I'm happy with CL, been with them 9 years and have only had one outage on the internet the entire 9 years, and was caused by a lightning strike and they repaired the problem in 2 hours. I also have had fiber optic since the beginning, which is 2011, and use no modem. Plug the computer or the router directly into the wall jack.

If you're referring to television, yes, I don't have CL TV, I have Directv for 12 years. If I were to leave them, I would go with streaming, probably youtube TV and then add maybe a couple of other services.
