TV came back within a few minutes, but it's still a bit of a head-scratcher when it drops out. I end up checking and rechecking my equipment. I know sure as heck if I wasted my time calling Comcast would NEVER admit they are having the problem.

Seriously consider StarLink. A little more money but never missed a second. It’s our son’s equipment but he was visiting and offered so we gave it a shot. I’m in for sure. He had a good laugh when he found out that I had gone back to Xfinity. They had been doing fine until the storm. We’ll see.

Ours went down a total of three times during the entire event, no one time for more than maybe three minutes.

Quantum Fiber perfect, no interruptions.

Surprisingly our dish network never flickered.

Just checked and it was down, rebooted modem and all is now well

Our Spectrum internet never faltered...

MartinSE 09-30-2022 11:25 AM

Going up and down this morning still.

Xfinity went down a second time late morning this time for a good half hour. Could have understood during the storm but wondering why today?

Live in McClure. No issues

In Mallory: mine keeps going out and coming back on intermittently.

My daughter works from home in Leesburg but moved to our house Wednesday. Xfinity has been off and on today. She's had a hard time explaining that to her boss in Texas. Comcast must be repairing service somewhere south that cuts off our lines here.

Xfinity (Comcast) does notify customers when they have an outage. It is on a recorded message when you call to report a problem with service. They are very transparent when the problem is at their end.

Comcast's FL data centers are located somewhere south of Tampa as well as near Miami and Tallahassee. This was why service was very spotty the past couple days. If your service didn't intermittently go down it was likely you weren't using it when it did. I get notified when internet is down for more than 30-45 seconds. Over the last few days it was out numerous times. Today, as of 10PM, was the first 100% uptime day since the storm. How about the other ~20% of Florida who have no service and those with no homes to get service? I guess we tend to be a bit spoiled. ;)
