July 24, 20232 yr I'm not very savvy when it comes to internet/technology stuff, but over the past several weeks we've had several long time periods of our modem not working/interent going out. It tries to start back up and keeps repeating. It eventually comes on, sometimes 4-5 hours later. Is my modem going out? Do I need a new one? My neighbors who have the same provider aren't having this problem, so it's obviously something on my end. Just not sure if I need a new modem or have a tech come out and look at the lines or whatever. Thanks for any info.
July 25, 20232 yr I’d have them come check the lines/signal that’s making it to your house before I replaced the modem.
July 25, 20232 yr You need a new house. Next it will be the dishwasher, then heater, then lights. What will be next? Can you afford that risk?
July 25, 20232 yr You can probably self-diagnose if you know how to log into your modem. If there's quite a bit of static noise (google is your friend), then you may need to call a technician out. If there's not, it's probably the modem and you can replace it yourself.

Well, we are currently remodeling our kitchen and doing an add on. Got a new dishwasher and new lights in the kitchen, so I've about got your list covered.
