Fiber Modem restarting itself daily.

As the title states -- Fiber Modem is restarting itself every 24 hours. I can almost pinpoint when it is going to restart everyday.

I know a lot of others have had this exact issue but I am struggling to find a solution anywhere. 

Is someone able to help advise or point me in the right direction as to how to solve this ongoing issue?

Hey @cuttingboard, we are here to help get your gateway back up and running,

We recommend that you try plugging your gateway into an outlet because the surge protector can cause resets, loss of service and slow speeds.

Let us know if this helps, for any further assistance, kindly get back to us.

Hi @ATTHelp -- I believe someone else pointed out that in your setup instructions it is recommended to actually plug it INTO a surge protector? -- Taking your advice though, I will plug it directly into the wall and respond in 1-2 days if a reset occurs again.

Thanks.

Hi @ATTHelp -- This problem is still persisting even though I have been plugged directly into the wall now for 3+ days.

Can someone please help assist? This is terribly annoying having to reboot all of my devices every single day.

Hi @cuttingboard,

 

Thanks for reaching out on the AT&T Community Forums! We hear you, let's team up and, change this experience for you.

 

Please answer a few questions for us so we can see what we can do to get this problem fixed for you.

Let's get to the bottom of your internet equipment restarting.

 

Along with that, please check the lights on your gateway to see if you see any red or flashing lights. This can point to an issue with the gateway itself. 

 

In the above mentioned link, you can select your gateway from the drop-down menu to find out what each light means for your respective model.

 

Please let us know this information so that we can assist further!

 

Happy to assist!

 

Jennifer, AT&T Community Specialist.

Hi Jennifer @ATTHelp 
  1. The lights are always white. Even when the modem does its daily reset, they are always white. 
  2. I have reset the modem manually numerous times and it does not help.
Can I please be elevated to an advanced tech professional? I know this issue is ongoing with other users and would like to speak with someone who understands this issue correctly.

Thanks!
