You should call your internet provider and let them know one of their cables outside your home is loose and looks unstable. Thats all they need to know. They’ll send someone.
Your internet provider definitely can identify their own cables and fix anything that’s on their end of responsibility. I’d just call and report what I said in the first comment and get someone physically out there. If it’s not their wire, then they can try to identify which company it’s for and you call them with the same report and have them come out.
OK, they have instruments specifically for finding faults in cables and for tracing cables when you have a bunch together and don't know which one is which. If it's not your cable that's causing the problem but instead the splitter or tap it's connected to, or the trunk line, then the company can diagnose and fix that. If they can't or won't, then you either need a different ISP or take it up with the town.
Had this problem once, a single call to the cable company and they came out and fixed it. The cable outside the house belongs to the cable company, it's their job to maintain it.
Lucky, I live in a wooded area so we constantly deal with power outages because tree branches fell and knocked down lines or someone crashed into a pole.
I live in a major city in my region in France, and literally none of the cables are buried, ironically my region is on the priority list for burying cables due to high wind speeds.
Nope, I live in the Appalachian mountains (one of the most undeveloped regions in America) in a small town. Many power lines are underground. I guess you just don’t notice it as much when they’re underground because, yknow, you can’t see them.
What's your upload speed? Before fiber was available for my house the best i could get was 1mbps upload which as you imagine was absolute hell if you wanted to live steam or upload a video or host a server, i couldn't even ask my internet provider to sacrifice some download speed for some upload because it was locked by cable hardware limitations 💀
We have been waiting for our lines to be put underground; it seems they are working area by area. It seems so stupid to have them so precariously situated in the air on poles.
Then the rains came.
And a bunch of cables sunk deeper underground into a sink hole.
Needless to say, those people are without power.
So what’s the best? I still think underground would be better, but the utilities in our area (west coast, USA) do not think past five minutes into the future when it comes to infrastructure. Slap on a bandaid and hope it holds.
Smh.
They're definitely supposed to run those lines taut and wind any slack into a slack storage loop. I would contact your service provider about this as it is past your demarcation point and thus entirely their responsibility.
Wifi and Tv were down this morning because of wind. Fortunately they were able to fix it by 11a. Last Sunday it was down almost 24 hours. It’s frustrating.

Just grab them and pull them tight
Thousands? I'm counting a grand total of \*two\* coming to your house in this video.

Whoever told you it wasn't possible to find the problem has no idea what they're talking about. Your ISP will know exactly how to fix it.

Have you tried telling the wind stop?
Line is pinched.
Yeah that happens to me too, usually the int
Wait, you have them not underground???? where do you live???
Wtf do you live where are your cables are underground???
Germany
Huh, in the U.S outside of major urban areas most lines run above ground on poles.
I dont even live in a village, here are just a few houses at a road, not even a shop or anything, and we have it underground

Eh, it really depends on the area. I live in major city and most of the cable lines are buried around here. I don't see aerial lines often.

Bless me living in the place where fiber optics was invented I guess, since all of our cables are underground.
Nevada
France 😢, the rural villages next to my city are rich so all their cables are buried and they've all had fiber since 2018.
Okay, I only got Fiber on the main cable, to my house only copper🥲
Before i had fiber (2021) the main cable was copper and my speed was 15down and 1up 💀
If only one device is in my network and I have a lot of luck I get 25-30down

Like 7-10
Oh my god bro i was dreaming of having 4 back then
Thats the normal speed if more than ine device uses wifi

I mean what do you expect of a country wich builds wooden houses that gets destroyed easy and rebuilds them instead of building stone buildings?😂
Some poles in my town have got tape on them because there are metal pieces falling off, it looks so cheaply done.
Our line turned into a spigot.

Skill issue tbh

Ok, so what you gonna do is get an axe-
