Packet drops pretty bad causing issues with Zoom calls, etc.

I have switched routers and modems.
This is still occurring. It has to be the inbound line from Xfinity.

What can I do to resolve this it is very very annoying while i am trying to work!

This is via a direct connection to the router via ethernet cable.
Do I need to schedule a service call to resolve? It is definetly an issue with the cable line. i have restarted everything and also changed cables etc. Still an issue.

Thanks

Hello user_iml5pj

Was the service initially self installed or was the service setup by one our techs? I was also curious if this is an xFi gateway or owned and managed personally? Thank you! 

 

Ethernet cables carry a specific category rating that determines max speeds. The higher the category, the faster the cable. For assistance with installation of select equipment and services not covered by Xfinity, see HelloTech overview.

 

If you use your own router along with your gateway, make sure the gateway is in Bridge Mode. Learn more about Bridge Mode. You'll also want to position the antennae of your router so that one is pointing vertically (12 o'clock), and the other one is pointing horizontally (either three or nine o'clock) to broadcast the strongest signal.
