in Internet
I live near guy Concordia metro in Montreal. All day (Oct. 14th) the internet has been down and I have to use my data. Is there an outage in my area? I have restarted my modem multiple times, but the problem has not gone away. This is a recurring problem. At least once a week I have to restart my modem because the wifi does not work, however today restarting it has not fixed the problem.

Hi Olivia
What lights are displayed on the front of the modem? This could help determine whether there is a problem in your area.
Please try unplugging your modem from the electrical outlet for a few minutes. Also unplug the coaxial cable to make sure it is fits well in the modem and also at the wall outlet.
Try restarting your modem.

Hi Fizzy,
I have attached a picture of the lights on my modem. The 5G light and the light above the 2G light are flashing.
Thanks!3 -
Sorry Olivia for your problem,
I would also contact Fizz by chat, this is not normal.3 -
Hi Olivia
Your modem is well connected to Fizz network.
Please check your account to make sure your plan payments are up-to-date.
Then try restarting your devices (phone, tablet, laptop) as well.
If the problem persists, you may try a factory reset of the modem. Press and hold the small button found behind the modem for 10+ seconds using a sharp object like a paper clip end.
After this, you will need to redo any custom configurations done when you first received the modem.
If the problem continues, you can contact customer support by chat, from 8 AM to 9 PM every day:
1- Connect to your Fizz account by clicking « Login » in the top right corner at fizz.ca
2- Any ad blockers in your browser should be disabled.

Hi Olivia. If the modem "seems" to be ok, try to connect a PC with cable to it, at least to check if is a WIFI problem or all output of modem is dead. If you have internet by cable, the only problem is wifi. Check the modem settings and check your devices connection settings. If nothing works, contact Fizz support. Hope this help.8
