@GetSpectrum why does your monthly fee keep going UP with no advanced notice to the customer?? And no alternative options provided? This is the 3rd time my rate has increased with no notice. You're pissing me off.

Has anyone else been having issues with @Ask_Spectrum the last few weeks. The video is glitchy and the sound goes in and out several times an hour

Nothing I usually post but FWIW had two experiences yesterday w/customer service for two large companies & difference couldn’t have been more stark. Will spare details but bottom line: @GetSpectrum very good. @StubHub very bad. One still has my business. One does not. Carry on

@NYCMayor @GetSpectrum is particularly bad about not allowing new yorkers to cancel their services. Forcing them to call or wait in store for hours on end to be able to end service. No ability to cancel on their website.

@IamBirdMomma @GetSpectrum @Starlink We lose signal briefly when it rains really hard. When we lose power the whole house generator kicks on and the reboot is quick. Love Starlink!

Dewar Spectrum outages — local patterns

Charter Spectrum's Dewar, IA footprint is part of a larger Iowa plant built on a mix of aerial and underground plant across the Spectrum footprint. The most frequent outage drivers here are severe weather, planned overnight node maintenance, backbone fiber cuts from construction, and utility power events that take amplifiers offline. When report volume rises across neighborhoods such as central, the live console usually lights up before Spectrum's own status tools catch every local node. Watch ZIP codes like 50623 for the earliest neighborhood spikes.

How to check Spectrum outages in Dewar

Confirm whether Spectrum is down in Dewar in under 5 minutes.

  1. 1. Check the live Dewar map

    Look at the live status on this page. Report volume above the baseline for Dewar means an active outage.

  2. 2. Verify with your ZIP

    Enter your ZIP to see localized report volume across Dewar instead of the broader total.

  3. 3. Rule out your equipment

    Only reboot your modem (unplug 60 seconds) if the map is quiet. If reports are spiking, the issue is upstream and a reboot won't help.

  4. 4. Report your outage

    Submit a report so other Dewar customers can confirm they're not alone.

  5. 5. Request a bill credit

    If the outage lasts more than a couple of hours, contact Spectrum with the start time and your service address to request a prorated credit.

Spectrum not working in Dewar? Troubleshoot it in order

Separate a local Dewar Spectrum fault from a problem inside your own home.

  1. 1. No internet at all, modem online light off or blinking

    Check the live Dewar status first. If reports are climbing, the issue is Spectrum's plant — a reboot cannot fix it, so log a report and wait for restoration.

  2. 2. Internet is connected but nothing loads

    Compare against the map: quiet map in Dewar means power-cycle the modem for 60 seconds and let it re-sync for 2–3 minutes; busy map means the fault is on Spectrum's side.

  3. 3. WiFi works, but only some devices lose service

    Router-side issue local to your home, not a network outage. Reboot the router only (not the modem), reconnect on the 5 GHz SSID, then re-test. Flat Dewar reports confirm it is inside your home.

  4. 4. TV or cable box out, internet fine

    A video-tier fault scoped to the Dewar headend rather than the data plant. If TV report volume is spiking on its own, no equipment reset is needed.

  5. 5. Service drops repeatedly for a few minutes at a time

    Intermittent ingress on plant is common during storms. Log each drop with timestamps from this page, then request a line technician referencing the Dewar report pattern.

  6. 6. Whole street is out and utility power is also down

    Grid event — Spectrum amplifiers draw power from the same feeders. Spectrum service in Dewar typically returns shortly after grid power is back. This is usually a local plant issue, not your modem.

The outage information on this page is based on user reports and local service indicators.
