We have had Charter | Spectrum Internet for around 12 years.

One thing I've noticed is their Charter Owned DNS servers are down (or really slow) a lot.

When mine was down I found I could ping by IP number, but not by name. Consider pointing both your DNS servers elsewhere. Easy enough to test for a week.

It's makes my home WiFi users happier.

Hi all,

Has anyone else with Charter/Spectrum noticed that they're seeing alot

more short 2-5 minute outages with Spectrum? Basically it all drops,

then a few minutes on my router (OPNsense 20.7.<latest> running on a

PCengines.sh APU4d4) I get the exact same IP address renewed via

DHCP. It's really really sucky and impacts the kids and myself

working from home.

Tried all kinds of things, but the damn thing keeps crapping out

randomly. I need to get them to look at this, but even with their

automated system, and hacving them reset the Cable Modem remotely, it

still fails randomly.

Cheers,

John
