I don't have a landline anymore at my place in the south. I still have high speed internet which takes spells of not working, especially after a good rain which we just had. By the time the Teck gets here days later it's working again. Yes we reset modem many times. Somes internet wakes up. This morning it didn't.
About a year ago I found this meter where my phone line was connected at my other place in the north. I no longer have either landline or internet on this property.
Last time Phone teck was out at place in south, I watched what he did and asked question. He connected my meter and it works same as his. He said I need a 20+ on stress.
This morning internet went to sleep. I connected my meter where phone teck connected his. Zero on the stress test. A few seconds later, meter starts making a data sound, similar to a dial tone. My internet woke up and started working.
Turning modem off is called a hard reset. Is connecting this meter to phone line acting like a hard reset too? Any idea why meter woke up my internet? Any idea what it takes to fix my problem permanently?
