It's better now, but there was a several year period during the covid work from home peak when Comcast internet in my area would routinely go out.
Like it was happening weekly. But there wasn't/isn't a viable alternative for broadband in my area. Don't you just love the free market monopoly?
Having no competition, they didn't have much incentive to fix their shit. At&t nominally provided broadband, but it was worse.
When it did go down, the cellular phone network got overwhelmed with traffic and became completely useless.
