@jeannieturfmom @GetSpectrum We don't have a ton of options. One option is down more than it's on (and it's $100), the other we got rid of after it went out during the semi finals of Michigan's natty run (football)

How to check Spectrum outages in Portsmouth

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

1. Check the live Portsmouth map
Look at the live status on this page. Report volume above the baseline for Portsmouth means an active outage.
2. Verify with your ZIP
Enter your ZIP to see localized report volume across Portsmouth instead of the broader total.
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. Report your outage
Submit a report so other Portsmouth customers can confirm they're not alone.
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 Portsmouth? Troubleshoot it in order

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

1. No internet at all, modem online light off or blinking
Check the live Portsmouth 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. Internet is connected but nothing loads
Compare against the map: quiet map in Portsmouth 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. 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 Portsmouth reports confirm it is inside your home.
4. TV or cable box out, internet fine
A video-tier fault scoped to the Portsmouth headend rather than the data plant. If TV report volume is spiking on its own, no equipment reset is needed.
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 Portsmouth report pattern.
6. Whole street is out and utility power is also down
Grid event — Spectrum amplifiers draw power from the same feeders. Spectrum service in Portsmouth typically returns shortly after grid power is back. This is usually a local plant issue, not your modem.
