Spectrum Internet connection is down

If you’re a Spectrum subscriber there’s nothing wrong with your computer. It’s their Internet service that is malfunctioning at present.

According to Downdetector.com, the service has been having issues for several hours now:

It doesn’t seem to be an isolated incident since, as you can see from this graph, Spectrum services have been having a lot of issues all through the last day.

Some users also complain about persistent and recurrent issues:

I live in Huntington Park CA and it’s been down since Saturday afternoon, it comes back like around 10pm, sometimes it’s slow, but then goes out again around 10am and doesn’t come back till late at night, 5 days of this now

Other users also called technical teams for repairs:

2.94 download in Hayden Idaho. I pay for 400. Had Techs out no less than a dozen times over the last six years. Suffice it to say we can’t wait until TDS fiber finally gets installed this winter.

As you can see from the outage map below, the reports are coming from all over US.

Unfortunately, the last Spectrum outage was this time for the TV services happening on September 4th.

If you already experience Spectrum packet loss, here’s an expert guide on how to fix that problem.
