    @CKWS_TV cogeco sucks ********

  • GinetteP Ginette Pelletier (@GinetteP) reported

    @cogecohelps @cogeco This is a joke right. You guys come to our house at least once a month sometimes more fiddle around with some wires assure us the problem is not between the pole and the house every single time. But the problem never ever gets fixed. My next complaint with CRTC has been made.

  • GambyVp VPGamby (@GambyVp) reported

    @lillquiche @cogeco And then when they switch to Bell they'll be affected by their next outage. Do you stop buying a car brand because one day the battery is dead?

  • GamesAndThatGuy ZeusBaxter (@GamesAndThatGuy) reported

    @b4technology @cogeco I'm sure my network is back up but my network name and password have been reset. Need to find a way to reset my wireless networks

  • NealYako shihPoop (@NealYako) reported

    @KeeganB63977789 @cogeco Sorry, if we are paying over $100 a month we need superb connection AT ALL TIMES. Since the summer, I’ve noticed COGECO being on and off. The internet will randomly disconnect sometimes for 15 minutes...sometimes 20. And now this. 10 year old customer here.

  • FrankJBooth Frank Booth🇧🇲🌍🇨🇦 (@FrankJBooth) reported

    @barbie60144 @cogeco No doubt it is. DNS problem suggests too much traffic

  • GamesAndThatGuy ZeusBaxter (@GamesAndThatGuy) reported

    @cogeco It seems my wireless network names and passwords have been reset. I lack a computer to connect directly with. How do I redo my wireless network names and passwords?

  • DeniseHR1 Denise Hunt-Robinson (@DeniseHR1) reported

    @CassanoraL Exact same situation. According to Cogeco, it may have been that we had " just enough of a signal'....per the tec dept.

  • Middleaged75 Just another Human!!! (@Middleaged75) reported

    @aschwabdotca @cogecohelps @cogeco We have switched our DNS settings from automatic to using manual. Googles dns server is 8.8.8.8. And 8.8.4.4. You can google it for verification. This will allow access to internet again. Can reset back to automatic once Cogeco fixes issue with their DNS server. Hope this helps.

  • JetDayz7 Dayz (@JetDayz7) reported

    @northtron54 @cogeco I’ve tried connecting to the google DNS servers (8.8.8.8) (8.8.4.4) but it’s still too slow🤷🏼

  • JenFraser55 Jennifer Fraser (@JenFraser55) reported

    @jdeq Sadly it’s not just cogeco. Rural internet has been awful - it’s not able to handle the capacity required to have synchronous learning. Then factor in having 2 young kids who need computer assistance to even work the computer and then it cuts out - it’s been a nightmare here.

  • MathesonStep Matheson Steplock (@MathesonStep) reported

    @cogeco So @cogecohelps is this a DNS outage?

  • monicalr75 bananas (@monicalr75) reported from Windsor, Ontario

    @taximom_03 @cogeco @cogecohelps Mines not working

  • barbie60144 Barb Sh (@barbie60144) reported

    @cogeco is the problem caused by all the children in Ontario on-line for school?

  • IppyTOM TOM IPPOLITO (@IppyTOM) reported

    @cogeco I changed the DSN as suggested by others and works now. But quick question: i assume it's a temp fix. When do we know things are normal again and I assume we have to change the numbers back?

  • MailJunky Junk Mail (@MailJunky) reported

    @cogeco This doesn't seem to be a 'localized' outage... Can you provide insight as to where/what the issue(s) is?

  • barbie60144 Barb Sh (@barbie60144) reported

    @Sflecce Stephen Internet was down all morning, Cogeco had an across province problem, how can children be expected to do on-line when the internet can't handle it. Get your act together.

  • davidcouvier Dave (@davidcouvier) reported

    @cogecohelps @cogeco You're doin what you can to get us some sort of service during this, so that's saying something, thanks for the updates

  • ButterBrained Mr. ButterBrain-Elect | Parler: @ButterBrain (@ButterBrained) reported

    @SteveA43400606 @cogeco Their support portal should not exist on their service infrastructure for exactly this reason. E.g., When my cloud provider goes down I can still access their technical support because they've separated these concerns.

  • dipppperwastook rblxdipppper (@dipppperwastook) reported

    Sooo ummm my brother reset my internet and now is broken thanks @cogeco

  • ComputerWhiz_ ComputerWhiz 🇨🇦 (@ComputerWhiz_) reported

    @Laxpro1dot10 @4razberries @cogeco Their website could just be down because everyone had issues at once and all tried to connect to it for support.

  • MKatie916 Ms. Katie 🇨🇦🏳️‍🌈🚺📚🚍 (@MKatie916) reported

    Cogeco internet is down, so all 4 kids can't log in. Partner at work from 8-4, I'm at work 12-5... going to be an interesting day.

  • r_quinla Dr Roberto Quinlan (@r_quinla) reported

    @LizLoveLake It's a weird day. We have no problems at home because we have Teksavvy, and yet it runs on Cogeco infrastructure. Some other tweets have mentioned this but state tech stuff that is beyond me. You gonna have to burn through your cell phone's monthly data by hotspotting it?

  • ca_klassen C.A. Klassen (@ca_klassen) reported

    Update: teacher is affected by epic Cogeco internet outage, so I'll be filling a temporary grade 2 science and media literacy position for the afternoon!

  • sarahshulist Dr Sarah Shulist (@sarahshulist) reported

    @1RunningMummy Yeah anyone on Cogeco is apparently down for the whole province, or close to it

  • jfmezei Jean-François Mezei (@jfmezei) reported

    @tysmo @Bryson_M I don’t recall any bro-ha-ha about Futureway. There was some for Cogeco who successfully argued that Ontario and Québec were to totally separate and Cogeco wouldn’t give service to Québec from a Ontario POI and got exemption. But don’t recall Futureway. Would have to look back

  • RandomSusla Random 🇨🇦 (@RandomSusla) reported

    @BBFarhadi @DrKateTO Cogeco went out in a large area about 9:30 ish. My kids turn off their ‘cell’ when home so they struggled to reboot the router and their devices until we got a call. H was able to access outages map through other service. Had chem test today. Chaos.

  • Simardtweets1 Simard (@Simardtweets1) reported

    @cogeco with a province wide interruption with their internet service. I cant think of a better way to get terrible advertising during homeschooling.

  • aschwabdotca Andrew (@aschwabdotca) reported

    @cogeco Any ETA for a complete fix? We've been totally without service all day. Postal code K0K.

  • MarkLegault Mark (@MarkLegault) reported

    @RogersHelps @Rogers is the cogeco outage at all related to problems with Rogers? We have been getting connection drops all day and it’s incredibly frustrating
