Constant packet losses and internet hiccups
Just wondering if anyone else has managed to solve any of the problems with Rogers internet. I recently moved into a new place and switched over to Rogers when their 150u deal was going on. Little did I know the headaches I was going to endure with this internet. Currently on the gigabit 150u plan using their Hitron CODA-4582 modem.
It started from the moment the technician left, after he said that my connection "solid". No. Everytime I try to watch a Youtube or Netflix video, the loading on either page would stop and I'd be forced to restart the page. Then other times I'd be Google searching content and the page would stop loading and go to a lost connection screen, again, forcing me to refresh the browser. Both these issues so far are present on Chrome/Firefox/IE.
Next up is my smart TV. Nither wifi or a wired connection would allow me to update or stream content. Everytime I'd try to update the TV I'd get a connection drop error. Figuring that something might be wrong with the TV, I hotspotted my mobile data to the TV and to my surprise was able to connect to everything on the TV.
And finally, when I game I am constantly disconnected from the service. I've run multiple traces getting a 100% loss on Roger's end and from the modem.
*I should prefix that I do not lose connectivity to the modem, more so that the connection is just constantly hiccuping.*
Long stories short... I'm having trouble with my internet and I'm wondering if people have managed to fix or work around this. If not, then I'm dropping Rogers.

Are all these issues happening over WiFi, or also with a hardware ethernet Lan cable? Can you log in to the modem goto DOCSIS WAN page and post the signal levels. The log in for the modem is:
user: cusadmin
password: what you used for your wifi password is the same password to log in to the modem.

Hi sorry for the late response, I was at work during the night. Yes, the problems occur over both an Ethernet and WIFI connection 😕

Your upload signal is a little too low, this could be the source of your issues. I would suggest calling Rogers or sending a PM to @CommunityHelps asking them to run a signal check. It should fail the check because the upload signal is too low. They should then send a tech to correct the issue.

Hitron CGN3 not connecting to DS frequency
Hey guys,
My issue is pretty much in the title. My internet has cut out multiple times over the past few days and I'm just getting a blinking downstream frequency light. No other lights are on when this happens. Is there anything I can do to attempt to reconnect the modem? I've tried resetting the modem and checked all of the cable to make sure nothing is disconnected by accident. Nothing has worked.
Thanks guys.

@k_houghts you can do one of two things:
1. Call tech support and ask the CSR to run a signal check on the modem. From what you're saying, that test should fail automatically, followed by a discussion to get a tech out to your home to determine what the problem is.
2. Log into the modem, navigate to the STATUS .... DOCSIS WAN tab, copy the downstream and upstream tables and paste them into a post. Those are the cable signal levels and signal to noise ratios. If they're bad enough, I'll indicate to you to go to step one. If not, then we follow the bouncing ball, so to speak and see where this leads.

Hi,
I've been have these intermittent problems over the last couple of months. I've called Rogers at least 10 times. They always tell me signal strength is good. I've changed the modem twice, the latest to the newer white CODA one. I've had three techs over to my house 1) just changed the connectors on the cable for internet. 2) said there was signal noise and the underground cable should be replaced -- which I later found out that they weren't going to do 3) called in the "A-team" of techs -- he fixed some outside connections, fixed inside connectors, replaced the phone modem as well and said the signal noise was improved.
However, the problem keeps happening. I'm posting the DOCSIS WAN, like others have, in case someone sees something that the dozen or so others haven't or has some suggestions.

Both
What does the modem do when these problems happen, do the lights on the front go out and the modem reboots?
At the beginning, the arrows wouldn't be lit, but the others were. I'd reboot then all is ok. Other times, I wait a bit before checking and then when I do, all the lights are ok, and then the internet works ok again.

Disconnected Every 10 minutes since last night
Was up late at night playing video games when it started assumed it was rogers end again, woke up still doing it so i just unpluged everything and took a nap and its still doing it when i woke up.
Connecting to the Router or the Rogers provided modem doesn't make any difference rebooting it doesnt make any difference and its every computer on my network but all the lights still indicate a connection.
