CenturyLink- Fiber internet outages today/Friday 4/12/19?

[valvashon1]

We have CenturyLink fiber internet (just internet and phone) at a speed of 40gig. We are experiencing intermittent outages that seem to happen a couple of times an hour. Power cycling the router (ours, not the CenturyLink one) works to restore service. This happened last fall on a Sunday night; by the morning the problem had disappeared. I have our router on an automatic reset every night at 2:30 am. I have also reset their ONT (Optical Network Terminal) and the VLAN Tagging switch I have between the ONT and the router. So far, after power cycling those two additional things it has been stable.
Anybody else getting outages today?

Thanks-

Val

This is common with CenturyLink. It’s either the modem needing to be replaced or they can’t handle the volume of local internet users. My advice, Xfinity has a better deal now and cheaper/more dependable. It’s what I did. Good luck.
