Hi,

My internet start to stop working several times a day, I work from home and always on calls with customers, and the calls just shut down randomly because no more internet.

I upgraded a month ago to the 100mb/30.

Every time I have to restart the modem, and wait till its back and start all over.

Any ideas what can be the problem ?

    Hi @Datarask

    Did you try to reset to the default configuration?


    • 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.

    I will try that later after I finish my job.

    How many devices connected at the same time ? I do have a lot devices that use internet, but when I am working it's only my phone and my work laptop.

    Sometimes another phone and another laptop if my family member is working from home too, but those last 3 days, only my laptop and my phone were connected, an it kept cutting.

    It happened to me yesterday too. Twice during the day, and it came back by itself after 10-30 minutes. I wonder why. It never did this before

    My speed is lower than those who seem to have this problem. No problem for me but my speed is only 30Mbps.
