About Spectrum outages
Spectrum outages, like other cable providers, are strongly geographic. Reports cluster tightly by city and often by neighbourhood, which is the clearest way to distinguish a genuine provider outage from a problem with one household's equipment.
The common symptoms are a modem that will not acquire a downstream channel, intermittent drops during peak evening hours that indicate node congestion rather than a hard fault, and TV service failing while internet continues. Spectrum's mobile service runs on Verizon's network, so a Spectrum Mobile problem can originate with a carrier the customer never signed up with. Email hosted on spectrum.net or legacy Time Warner domains is a separate service again. Spectrum provides an account-level outage check after sign-in, but no public status page, so aggregate report volume is the fastest external signal.
What to do if Spectrum is not working for you
Is it them or you?
Our last check reached spectrum.net normally, from a different network, resolver and route than yours. If it is broken for you, the fault is most likely local or too narrow for a single probe to see. Run the check again now to confirm.
The first thing worth trying
Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data first. This single test separates a provider outage from everything else, and it takes five seconds.
How internet & mobile services typically fail
Everything fails together, including sites that are certainly fine. Pages that are already cached still load, which is misleading. Mobile data working while Wi-Fi does not, or the reverse, is the clearest possible signal. The rest of the steps, and why this category breaks the way it does, are on our internet & mobile status page, with more background in changing your DNS to 8.8.8.8 or 1.1.1.1.
The link below unfurls into a live card showing the verdict, so whoever you send it to sees the evidence rather than your word for it.

Spectrum measured against its peers
How it compares with other internet & mobile services
Over the last 30 days Spectrum ranks 5 of 5 internet & mobile services we monitor, measured on recorded uptime. The category averages 100.0%, and Spectrum sits at 100.0%. The steadiest in this group is Xfinity (Comcast).
On speed, Spectrum answers our checks in about 166 ms against a category average of 318 ms - Faster than its peers. Response time is not availability, but a service drifting well above its own normal is often the first sign of trouble.
What the last 24 checks looked like
Across the most recent 24 checks, the quickest response was 90 ms and the slowest 312 ms, against a 30-day average of 166 ms. The chart above plots each one, so a widening spread is visible before it becomes an outage.
All figures are our own measurements, taken every 20 minutes from one network. What that can and cannot see is set out in the methodology, and every internet & mobile service is listed on the category page.

An expired certificate stops browsers loading a site entirely while the server itself stays perfectly healthy, which is why we track it beside the uptime figure. Check it yourself.
Spectrum status: Common questions
Is Spectrum down right now?
Spectrum is up and responding normally. This page is refreshed by an automated check that runs every 20 minutes from an independent network, and by reports from visitors.
Why can I not reach Spectrum when you say it is up?
Because an outage can be partial. Our check runs from one network and asks for one page. Your problem may be regional, may affect only the mobile app, or may be local to your connection, DNS resolver or browser cache.
How reliable is Spectrum?
Spectrum has been reachable for 100.0% of the last 5 days we have measured, with 0 seconds of recorded downtime.
Does Spectrum have an official status page?
Spectrum does not publish a public status page, which is why independent monitoring and user reports are the only external signal available during an incident.
