API Status CheckWhat happens when Comcast goes down?
Complete internet outage
No connection to any websites or services, modem/router shows offline status or red lights.
Slow speeds or intermittent drops
Connection frequently drops, pages load slowly, or video streaming buffers constantly during peak hours.

How do I troubleshoot Comcast issues?
- 1
Restart your modem and router
Unplug both devices for 30 seconds, then plug modem first, wait 2 minutes, then plug in router.
- 2
Check cable connections
Ensure coax cable is tight on both modem and wall outlet. Loose connections cause intermittent issues.
- 3
Test with ethernet cable
Connect directly to modem via ethernet to rule out WiFi issues. If wired works, the problem is your router or WiFi.
- 4
Check for local outages
Use the Xfinity app or website to see if there's a reported outage in your area.
- 5
Contact Comcast support
If troubleshooting fails and no outage is reported, contact Xfinity support via app, website, or 1-800-XFINITY.
