  • GermainRioux Germain Rioux (@GermainRioux) reported

    @SeawayNews This must have been upstream. I had the same kind of issues and I'm not on COGECO

  • DunloweDCD GIlles Langlois (@DunloweDCD) reported

    @cogeco Working from home and now I can't work due to this, you really need to update your infrastructure, as good as your customer service is, your actual service sucks.

  • hurt_cuts SafeOntarioSchools (@hurt_cuts) reported

    There is a major Internet outage affecting Cogeco, Bell & Rogers and other supplier customers which is affecting staff and students from connecting to remote learning this morning.

  • limmereso Ryan Legault (@limmereso) reported

    @Tierney4351 @cogeco SUPER awesome that their customer support apparatus is completely and utterly unable to help anyone, or even to inform their customers that there are issues. Great show, awesome job, @cogeco!

  • JoanneSoave Joanne Soave (@JoanneSoave) reported

    @drumlion @cogeco @cogecohelps Down across the province....

  • pkinta Pedro (@pkinta) reported

    @adamfilip @cogeco For me it kinda works, slow as hell and unreliable. I've also tried the cloudfare public DNS, same result

  • notredameadmin We are ND! (@notredameadmin) reported

    Hey IRISH, apparently there a service outage for COGECO in the area. You may not be able to connect to the NCVLE or Google. If you are experiencing difficulties connecting, please know that this is not your issue but rather an internet outage.

  • rob_edw Rob (@rob_edw) reported

    For those with #Cogeco, if you're experiencing connection problems, you can hardcode 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.8.4 as your DNS servers until Cogeco fixes the issue on their end. Please dm or @me if you want to know how to do this

  • RedbeardUnbound Redbeard (@RedbeardUnbound) reported

    @cogeco Would love some details on the issue. Please be transparent with your customers

  • Laxpro1dot10 Laxpro1.10 (@Laxpro1dot10) reported

    @Krucifix_ @travellingsou11 @cogeco My bad than. I said it could be, my main point was no need to complain and bicker. It wasn’t done on purpose

  • qualifiedhandy1 qualifiedhandyman (@qualifiedhandy1) reported

    Cogeco is down across Ontario. No online teaching. Lol. Crash and burn.

  • Master__Ozen Ozen (@Master__Ozen) reported

    @Andrade14Mike @GinetteP @cogeco Ye bell is actually the worst, GL lol.

  • AndrewBMowat Andrew Mowat (@AndrewBMowat) reported

    @cogecohelps received an email from the Halton School Board that Cogeco service is down. No information shared generally from Cogeco. Very frustrating.

  • copysoflou emolys real gf (@copysoflou) reported

    @cogeco if i don’t have wifi within the next 10 minutes i’m telling my mom to cancel

  • Kick_Nayzur Nick (@Kick_Nayzur) reported

    @cogeco Looks like cogeco's DNS is down. For a temporary fix, change your DNS address in your network settings to 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4 (Google's DNS)

  • Krucifix_ Krucifix (@Krucifix_) reported

    @Laxpro1dot10 @travellingsou11 @cogeco That’s not it chief they manually took down their website and phone so they wouldn’t be bombarded by numerous people reporting the same thing

  • devithinks Devi (@devithinks) reported

    @SaranoidAndroid @cogeco I’ve literally restarted my laptop seven times this morning before being alerted it was down. Seems to be partially down, works on some devices but not others. Troubleshooting hell here this morning.

  • Tim_Earl_75 Tim Earl (@Tim_Earl_75) reported

    @cogeco was able to work around the outage by changing my DNS to Googles using 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4. I think the Cogeco DNS is down.

  • unharmonizedd rebecca (@unharmonizedd) reported

    @cogeco Like I have never met a worse internet service provider

  • Todd0575 Todd (@Todd0575) reported

    @jesshas94 @cogeco You must have missed the last price increase notice about “hardware” improvements for “exceptional” service

  • BaitHateful HatefulBait (@BaitHateful) reported

    @GinetteP @cogeco Bell is also experiencing outages across the province. It's not anymore of a consistent service

  • blissful_muse07 Melissa Arditti (@blissful_muse07) reported

    @cogeco Thanks for the update! Will you be adjusting customer internet bills due to the major disruption, as so many of us are relying on fast Cogeco internet speed for everything right now!

  • mike_rivaltown Mike (@mike_rivaltown) reported

    @cogeco It’s literally issue after issue with you guys. Pretty sure you’ve been over to my place like 5 times in the past 2 months just to fix the goddamn router

  • Sparks_DJH David (@Sparks_DJH) reported

    @LimestoneDSB The issue is with Cogeco's DNS servers. If you change the DNS servers on your router to google's DNS it fixes the issues. 8.8.8.8 8.8.8.4

  • kiiiirstie cursed crone (@kiiiirstie) reported

    Nothing makes applying again for ei/crb online more of traumatic experience than having to deal with cogeco having an outage at the same time

  • RebeccaBredin Rebecca Bredin (@RebeccaBredin) reported

    I’m not sure what’s worse: Intermittent service or no service at all? My internet is trying to work, but I can’t accomplish much of anything. Plus, even my bell data seems laggy now. #Cogeco

  • bendraper Ben Draper (@bendraper) reported

    @cogecohelps for those who can try switching your DNS servers on your router to Google’s servers (8.8.8.8 for example). This resolved the problem for me. Seems like Cogeco dns servers aren’t reachable.

  • specedman Specedman (@specedman) reported

    @GlobalNational So COGECO sends out a notice on the internet to tell me that my internet is down and that they are working on it. Is it me or does this not make sense ?

  • TheWelshWizard6 The Welsh Wizard (@TheWelshWizard6) reported

    @cogeco In my 25 years of owning internet this has never happened to me. I’m switching companies.

  • jesshas94 Jessica Haskett (@jesshas94) reported

    @Todd0575 @cogeco Service outages happen everywhere with everyone. Judging by the wide scale outage and the website and phones not working it sounds like something outside of cogeco’s control. Google is having some problems too. It’s better to research and understand not ***** all the time.
