    Hi Chloe,

    you can try a factory reset of your modem, thus resetting the modem to factory conditions, by pressing and holding in the small button on the back of the modem with a thin, pointed object, for 10+ seconds. Then wait a few minutes until all lights are on and the update is complete. 

    Then you'll have to open your web browser and then a Easy-Connect page by Fizz will appear and ask you to re-enter the name of the network and also the password. This operation, when you try to reconnect to your network, is more efficient when your device is directly connected to the modem, but you can also do it without a cable. It'll be as you did it when you first installed it.

    The network name used, if you do the manoeuvre directly connected to the modem with the cable provided by Fizz, will be created by you, as will the password, since the modem will have been reinitialized.

    However, if you do the operation without the cable, you will need to use the codes shown on the modem to be able to access wi-fi first...

    Resetting Fizz router is the last resort, you don't do that each time you lose internet. Even unplugging the power supply is not something you should do often.

    Modem and router are supposed to work for months without unplugging or resetting them.

    Next time when you lose internet, make sure that it's not Fizz network, before taking any action.

    When videotron technician worked in my area, i lost internet several times and i knew it was normal because he had to reset some equipements.
