Daily loss of phone service

Everyday, between approx 11am and 1pm I lose my phone service for a few minutes.

I hear a click in the phone after several minutes and then the dial tone continues after a minute or so.

Internet service is also interrupted during this time.

What's going on?

Sounds like your modem is resetting some how. What phone modem do you have?

Also, what are the signal levels? Should be found at 192.168.100.1  . Here are mine for comparsion:

This is probably NOT your issue since you say the Internet is also going out.

But I thought I would just throw it out there, since this happened to me, and was difficult to diagnose. It may help someone else in the future.

My Phone would always disconnect me if I happened to be on the Phone at exactly 3pm everyday.

It turned out my hardwired alarm system had an erroneous setting to phone into the monitoring center everyday at 3pm.

This would have been much easier to diagnosis if Cox would just log outgoing toll free numbers, but they won't and I've repeatedly asked.

Power levels look very similar to those posted by Tecknowhelp.
