Every damn day it cuts out randomly for 30 minutes or so.


It's aggravating as hell.

Any ideas why it keeps happening?

I cant tell you how amazing the switch to AT&T fiber has been.

Just a suggestion, mine did the same thing (NOT BR). I changed my router to a Google Nest and never had the problem came back. I assume it was the old Netgear POS I had causing the problems. Take that for what it's worth.

Switch to AT&T fiber if you're able to in your area. I had Cox internet all my life, and if 3 days went by that I didn't lose internet for a period of time, I considered it a miracle. Jumped on the AT&T fiber internet bandwagon back in October of last year, and have since not experienced any period of internet outage. Zero issues at all.

I've been having a lot of issues lately in Metry. It was REALLY bad when I got back from work earlier, cutting out every 5 minutes.

Went to the the "My Account" portion of their website and chose to reset modem option (it's different than just unplugging it and plugging it back in). That was about 5 hours ago and I haven't had any issues since. Fingers crossed.

My AT&T cuts out once or twice a day, but only for a few seconds or a minute or two. We don't have fiber available from anyone. When we had Cox it was worse, it would go out for hours without reason. AT&T can see that we are loosing a connection but they have no idea why we are losing it. They give us a credit if one of us calls and bitches about it, but that doesn't improve anything.

Not only that, but blazing speeds 24/7. I remember Cox at 5pm in Lakeview was like dialup.

Do you have the new Contour Box, because I'm experiencing the same thing? Technician coming Friday.
