How do I fix my Comcast Internet connection?

1. Check for Internet outages

1. Sign in to your Xfinity account.
2. Navigate to the Services tab and click it.
3. Click on Status Center.
4. If it is an outage, a pop-up will notify you. Click on Text me when it’s resolved.
   
   
5. Type in your phone number, then select Get a Text.
   

Before we dive into hardware-related stuff, we should make sure that your issue isn’t caused by your Internet provider.

Sometimes your Internet problems do not actually have anything to do with you. Outages are really common, especially during bad weather, or during construction work.

Fortunately, Xfinity has got you covered, providing with an interface that allows you to check for your service’s availability.

2. Check if you paid for the service

1. At first, sign in to your Xfinity account.
2. You should see Balance Due on the home screen.
   
3. Tap on View bill details & history. 
   
4. If you haven’t paid your bill, contact your service provider.

Sometimes you forget about paying for yourservices, which will make your provider cut your internet supply until the problem has been settled.

Use this method to make sure you pay the monthly fee to the provider, otherwise you could be charged extra for not paying in time.

3. Check the power and connection of your devices

1. Check if your coax cable is properly connected to your wall outlet and to your desktop.
   
2. Make sure that your Ethernet cable is properly connected to both your desktop and your wireless.
   
3. See if your power cord is connected to your wall outlet.
   

Even if your devices are connected, it is always good to unplug and plug them again. Moreover, make sure you apply a bit of pressure when plugging them back in.

1. Start by signing in to your Xfinity account.
2. Scroll until you see Manage Internet and click on it.
3. Click on Restart Modem.
4. Select Start Troubleshooting and wait for your modem to restart.

Sometimes your modem‘s information can get messed up, resulting in abnormal behavior. If this is the case, following the steps should fix the problem in no time.

5. Restart your wireless router and modem manually

1. Unplug your modem and router from their Internet and power sources.
2. Leave them unplugged for approximately one or two minutes.
