I’ve been having this issue for a few days now. Roughly twice a day, for 10-15 mins, my internet just suddenly goes out without any warning. Then it comes back and is totally fine again. ISP says that there’s nothing going on on their end (and most of the time when I have an internet outage they do say they’re having an issue)

Is the router just fucked? Are there web goblins stealing my interwebs? Is there any way to tell?

    It’s a long shot, but you might also want to check your cable modem to make sure it isn’t full of dust and overheating. Blast it out with some canned air or an air duster just on general principle, but also keep an eye on it the next time you have an intermittent outage – the lights on the front (depending on model) should tell you if you’re losing connectivity out to your ISP.
