I keep losing connection

UPDATE 02/13/2020:  Finally got a tech to pay a visit late yesterday. Not only was the dish out of alignment but the modem and power pack had to be replaced. So it was a combo of the 2. And I now my system is a little bit faster that it was before the issues cropped up last week, even while out of data!

 

Thanks to everyone who responded and helped me maintain what little sanity I had left.

Internet quality & connectivity severely degraded today. I keep losing connection. There is no obstruction or weather event. The connections are all good. The lights are flashing and then go dark. Then they come back on, flashing - even the power button flashes. I work from home building and maintaining websites and the inability to connect and stay connected to the internet is unacceptable. What is going on? Is there some system disturbance or maintenance that's happening? Or is my modem going out? I'd appreciate some information on why this is happening. This is the 2nd time Thank you, Cheryl Johnson

Good morning cherylaoife,

 

  I'm glad you found the community, thank you for posting. Glad to see service is stable again. I'm able to run diagnostics on your site, and while everything is working well now, I would recommend a dish realignment. If you get in touch with business/SME support in the future should you run into intermittent connectivity, I would request a tech for a realignment, even if the diagnostics still show everything as OK at that time.
