Spectrum Down? Try This First

Three quick checks that resolve most Spectrum internet and TV problems when there is no confirmed area outage.

Confirm the outage

Check the live trace and report volume above. If reports are flat, the issue is probably inside your home rather than the Spectrum network.

Power-cycle your gear

Unplug the modem and router for 60 seconds, plug the modem back in first, and wait for a solid connection light before reconnecting the router.

Check line and account

Tighten the coax at the wall and modem, then sign in to your Spectrum account for maintenance notices or billing holds on the line.

How This Data Is Collected

Every figure on this page comes from visitor-submitted reports. No Spectrum telemetry is involved.
1

Someone reports a problem

A visitor confirms their Spectrum service is down and submits their ZIP code plus the affected service. We record no name, email, or account details.

2

Reports are grouped and timestamped

Each report is stamped in UTC and mapped to the nearest of our 200 covered cities, then bucketed into one of the last 24 hours.

3

Volume becomes a status

Report weight in the last hour sets the status label. Each report represents an estimated 10 to 15 affected subscribers, since most people never report an outage.

What this data is not: a quiet chart does not prove your service is fine, and a busy chart is not an official outage notice. Only Spectrum can confirm an outage on your account. Maintained by the spectrum-outage.com monitoring team. Read the full methodology and known limitations or email help@spectrum-outage.com.
