Maybe something wrong outside the house?

Last year we suddenly lost our TV cable. We called Comcast and went thru the whole activation thing...still dead as a doornail.

They sent a guy out, very quickly (we were soon to find the reason), and once he determined it was not the set or inside, he climbed the pole. Guess what he found there?

A previous employee had capped off our line. Our repairman brought the cap in to show us and to take back to work... seems another home discontinued service and the technician who climbed the pole disconnected US instead. !! He was amazed in fact!

You could have a loose connection or a squirrel/rat chewed line that is shorting out -- outside your place. They will check for that. UpNorth, there is line damage all the time from those little red squirrels. In the cities, it can sometimes be rats!

I hope you get it fixed finally... I bet he finds something outside!
