Intermittent Packet Loss

Me and my neighbor (separate houses, possibly more people in my neighborhood) have been experiencing intermittent packet loss that occurs across every device in the network, wifi or ethernet over the last 1.5 months (previous year was perfect).

4+ techs have all come out and replaced/inspected the following:

  1. Replace Xfinity Modem (2-3 times)

  2. Replaced Ground cable to pedestal

  3. Inspected cables in house and receptables

  4. Replaced filter on line (POE/MOCA filter? I think its called?)

I did my own ping testing and found this, but it occurs INTERMITTENTLY, like once every hour or two which coincides with the issues I am seeing.

How do I get the right eyes on this? If my neighbor and I are having the exact same issues, the problem can't possibly be in my home.

Hey there, @user_a422c0. Our team can definitely understand how stressful and irritating it is to have issues with your internet connection. We all work from home on this end of the screen so we can completely relate to how it causes you to make arrangements that you didn't expect. If you could please send me a DM with your first and last name along with your full-service address, we can get started providing assistance from this end.

this issue is not resolved. it occurs daily, its interrupting my work and leisure. I had a tech worker, his manager, and his manager at my house trying to get it resolved and I cannot get a solid answer.
