internet cutting out

Yes, some users, including myself, have occasionally experienced issues where the internet connection cuts out randomly for short periods, like 5-10 minutes. Here's a summary of common experiences and potential solutions:

1. Router Issues: Often, the problem can be linked to the router. Restarting the router usually helps. If this happens frequently, you might want to look into router settings or consider a firmware update.
2. Network Congestion: During peak hours, network congestion can cause temporary outages or slow-downs. This is more common in densely populated areas.
3. Service Maintenance: Sometimes, these interruptions are due to Fizz performing maintenance on their network. Fizz usually notifies users of planned maintenance, but unexpected issues can still occur.
4. Hardware Issues: In some cases, the modem or the internal wiring might be at fault. If you suspect this, contacting Fizz for a modem replacement or a technician visit might be necessary.
5. Signal Strength: Check the signal strength in different parts of your home. Weak Wi-Fi signals can cause intermittent connectivity issues.
6. External Factors: External factors like weather conditions, especially in areas with overhead cables, can impact service.
7. Contacting Fizz: If the problem persists and you can't find a solution, contacting Fizz’s customer support is a good step. They can check if there's an issue with your connection specifically or a broader problem in your area.
