I am on Comcast / xFinity Cable internet, been on it forever now, 10+ years, and it has been pretty stable and reliable for the most part of those ten years, I would say 85% stable. But more recently this year way less stable.
Well lately, since Spring almost, we get disconnected quite often especially on Saturday and Sunday mornings and afternoon. It will go offline, and say ' The DNS server isn't responding ' So I will unplug the Xfinity modem, wait 10 seconds, plug back in, and troubleshoot with Windows 10, and withing 5 minutes or so back on again, but then half hour later or hour will happen again, and same thing, and that can happen all morning and afternoon some days, but not all weekends. Seems weeknights when I game, it's 95% rock solid. But just the past week I started getting this issue, and I never had those issues ion late night game sessions before.
We have two gaming computers hooked up, and both the same issue, not just one PC.
So I went out and bought a $150 modem, hooked that up this weekend, called Comcast gave them the mac address to officially register it, all good for one day, rock solid, then Sunday morning, same disconnect again, same BS.
Help me [H]ard geeks, your my only hope.
