Full Week No Internet

is anyone else experiencing this? just straight up nothing. State of Arkansas, city Fort Smith. I see others have intermittent issues but ours has been out constantly for days.

 

Contacting anyone at all just states the technicians are working on it… No estimated time to return to normal. Just want to know if it’s just me or not.

  • Agreed, this is ridiculous.  No time lines, just two texts a day, saying they are working on it.  We are in Lowell, and are now on our third day straight with no internet at all.  We only have the 100Mbps too, so not even the good one.  Tried to call, with no answer.  I am looking into Right Fiber, that was just brought to Lowell, to see if I can at least get some consistent service.

    Also, this outage is happening every week now for anywhere from 3 hours to days on end.  My cell phone bill is skyrocketing due to having to use my hot spot for any kind of connectivity.  Also if you are the moderator don't end me that "Reach us on Twitter crap, either I don't have a Twitter account, give me a phone number with an actual human to talk to, so I can at least get an ETA of when we can expect service restored.

    I also will be requesting credit on my bill as well.  Cox, the name says it all.

    I live in fort smith Arkansas as well and ever since I upgraded my service 3 months ago my internet has hardly worked well enough for constant usage. Have called well over 100 times in that period and it’s always the same response “we’re not seeing any issues on our end we’ll have to send a tech out to learn the issue” yet the service has done it in 3 different locations since the upgrade and I’ve upgraded my modem bought new plug ins etc. Everyone around me has issues with cox specifically as well. I do not want a moderator commenting on this asking me to call anyone because believe me I’ve done it I just want my Wi-Fi I’m paying $200 a month for to work. From what I’ve seen it’s a trend with cox for people to upgrade their service and get nothing out of it except no Wi-Fi from cox. I’m really about done with you guys. My Wi-Fi goes down constantly throughout the day and when it’s running it runs maybe 150mbs/s when I’m paying for 1000.
