Hi, my wifi has been working on and off since I moved. It hasn’t worked for the last 3 days now and I don’t know what to do as I’ve tried plugging it into many spots in my appartment.

thanks In advance,

    Sorry

    If you are experiencing internet problems with Fizz, here are some suggestions to try and troubleshoot the issue:

    • Restart your modem and router: Sometimes simply unplugging your modem and router for a few minutes and then plugging them back in can fix connectivity issues.
    • Try to turn off the modem, unscrew the coaxial cable, wait 5 minutes, screw back the coaxial cable and power on.
    • Check your cables and connections: Make sure all cables are securely connected and not damaged. Replace any damaged cables.
    • Try a factory reset the modem 
      • Using a small, sharp object, press the modem’s reset button for 10 seconds.
      • Once your modem has restarted, follow the same instructions you used when you initially installed it.
      • wait 15 minutes and then redo the installation process by following the details found here :  https://fizz.ca/en/faq/how-install-my-wi-fi-modem 
      • Reminder: The default username (Default Wi-Fi network) and password (Default key) for your Wi-Fi network are written on a sticker on the back of your Wi-Fi modem

    you can do a reset

    As a last resort

    If none of the above options work out for you, your last resort option is to restore your Wi-Fi modem to its factory settings.

     

    IMPORTANT: This will reset any changes that have been made to your Wi-Fi modem settings to date. You may also need to reconfigure your devices’ Wi-Fi settings (network name, password, etc.).

     

    Using a small, sharp object, press the reset button located behind the modem for 10 seconds.

    Once your modem has restarted, follow the same instructions you used when you initially installed it.

    How do I set up my Wi-Fi modem?

    Connect the coaxial cable

    Connect the power cord

    Make sure your modem is ready

    Write down your modem’s info

    Configure your modem

    Activate your modem (if applicable*)

    Download the Fizz Wi-Fi app

    contact the green bubble support at the bottom right https://fizz.ca/en/support
