    Sorry @Murat K.

    Here we are users, did you try to do some troubleshooting?

    Here some steps

    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.

    The modem doesn't have an expiration date, why do you think that it is broken and that you don't have a problem with the coaxial cable?

    You should have a good reason for the modem replacement. Try the steps mentioned above by @Jess_i88b6, it it doesn't help contact customer support.

    Hello Murat K.  ,

    Sorry to hear about the issue.

    I verified your modem`s signals and it would be best to just try to set a service call , and have a technician to come and check what`s happening while also solving the issue.

    This can be done on either social media ( a request for a technician visit ) or on Live chat : https://fizz.ca/en/support

    Thank you for your understanding.
    Have a good one,
    -Raul
