Hi
Sorry you are having internet issues.
Does the problem occur with WIFI only or even when you connect directly to modem via Ethernet cable?
Please unplug the Fizz modem from the wall outlet for 2 minutes. Then restart it and try a speedtest using a device connected to the modem by ethernet cable.
If the issue occurs with WIFI only, you may benefit from disabling auto channel selection in your modem admin settings, and selecting a specific channel. You can find which channel is least congested by using a smart phone and downloading a WiFi analyzer app, which will show you the channels of nearby devices.
If the problem continues, you can try factory reset of the modem by pressing and holding down the small button behind the modem for 10+ seconds with a sharp object like paper clip.
If there is no improvement, you can contact customer support by chat:
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.
3- Open a Fizz help page like this one: https://fizz.ca/en/faq/i-connected-my-device-using-network-cable-my-internet-connection-slow-how-do-i-fix-it
4- The green chat bubble should appear after a few seconds in the bottom right corner.15 -

Can we get a statement from Fizz about the Intermittent internet outage?11

Yes me too, it has been 10 days of o and off. Videotron has signaled it.
I would like to see Fizz declaring the real status of the internet too.
And if they could fix the issue also!10 -
Its seem to be a know issues but you still can try to restard the modem maybe everything will work after that. Have a nice day

Cheryl,
Have you tried to do a factory reset of your modem?
It can help.
With a needle, hold on 35,40 seconds the reset button back in the center of the modem, released it after.
Wait 2,3 minutes until you are seeing again the modem's lights.
If you are connected directly to the modem, you'll see on the screen:
Easy connect.
Types twice the factory password code back of the modem.
Your internet connexion is supposed working well at 100%.
After, reconnect the other devices on your wi-fi network with the same factory password code.
If you still need more help, contact the Fizz customer customer by chat.
