      @dberges

      As mentioned earlier...
      Echo Networks Service

      but I do see that the two agents you left are referred to the same hardware.

      It is not clear to me what you are trying to do at this point: please let me understand

          I see you removed all the agents now...
          ... and created a new one :-)

            I would strongly suggest you to leave that PC up and running for some time so we can see what it is capable of
            Meanwhile I will override the hops assignment as I mentioned in an earlier post

              @SBK but see all the gaps in the ping chart? i think those are all 1-3 minute outages - that's my problem. not showing up on the outages chart though.
              i will leave it up now, no travel planned.

                Right what you see in the pings is when the agent is unable to communicate with our servers but not necessary they are IP outages.

                Will go thru in these days, lets accumulate a reasonable amount of data

                  this morning i noticed that the agent was disabled. said it came on at 3am and went off at 5am. couldn't figure out why or how to reengage it, so i deleted and reloaded another one.

                    Sorry Dave, but I need to understand exactly what happened

                    There is no such thing like agent disabled could be either inactive or disconnected can you confirm which one of the two was?

                    When you said you deleted and reloaded another one, what exactly did you do since I still see the same agent with the same version

                    One last thing: if the agent behaves strangely I prefer you leave the installation as it is so i can troubleshoot from here otherwise I cannot help

                      ok, sorry. i just saw it said "disconnected" when i checked it this morning. Whatever happened, just happened again. Internet was out for about 5 minutes around 4pm. agent on the dashboard was yellow and said "inactive" or something like that. Then it switched to disconnected (red) now. I'll leave it alone for you

                          Dave,

                          I need to ask you to try again with a previous version

                          Please follow these steps:

                          1. Uninstall the software from the windows control panel (Echo Network Service)
                          2. Go to the dashboard of agent 129301
                          3. Choose "Manage" menu
                          4. Press "reinstall/update" button and...
                            ...follow the instructions, which will guide you to download an older version of the software

                          Use this new file you are going to download and NOT the version you already have downloaded in these days

                          Then let's check together where we are and if this problem is still happening

                              "promise!" :-)

                              I can see you did the installation and i can see that the agent went disconnected

                              I only ask you that you leave that PC up and running as it is now no matter what the dashboard says without trying to restart services or otherwise

                              ok ??

                                    So it's been running successfully for 4 or 5 days. internet still drops 2 or 3 times a day that we notice. Ping show them i think, but none of the other charts do. i realized yesterday that i had it set on 3 minutes+ so i changed it to 1+, but still didn't show this morning's 2 minute outages. And the ping chart only shows 4 hours, so i really don't have much to show my ISP. any ideas?

                                      SBK is not here this week so I'll try to help. Can you share the exact agent ID and can be sure to not delete it, uninstall it, stop the service, nothing, just let it run so we can see what's going on.

                                      From what SBK saw, it appears your connection is suffering signal level issues which is why you're not seeing outages. The two are different problems but still means a problem with this connection.

                                      Anyhow, once you share the ID, I'll take another look.

                                      Regards,
                                      OutagesIO Support

                                      Search engines favor deep pockets making it difficult to find services like OutagesIO.

                                        129301 is the agent. He was noting how many hops i had at the beginning and think he was going to change something. What do you mean by a signal issue?
                                        I can wait until next week if you don't figure it out. Trying to get a record of frequency and duration of outages to share with my ISP (AlticeOne)

                                          I took and look and as SBK explained, you're not experiencing IP outages, you have some other issues on that service such as signal levels.

                                          If SBK said he would make a custom adjustment then I'm sure he did and speaking with him last week, the agents are running as they should be. You just need to stop uninstalling-re-installing them and let one run for a while :).

                                          Did you go over the links I shared with you when I first replied? Those explain the difference between signal levels and actual IP outages.

                                          This post is exactly about the kind of problem you seem to be experiencing.

                                          Local provider refused our helpful data

                                          Sometimes the provider knows about the problem but they don't want to invest in upgrades in your area until many more complain but sometimes, they are simply not aware of it thinking their monitoring equipment is showing all is fine.

                                          It's a shame that we consumers have to spend so much time on such problems. All we want are reliable services.

                                          The worse part about these kinds of issues is that the provider will likely never admit to them and barely dig into them until enough people complain if your area.

                                          If they are signal issues outside of your location, then others using the same provider in your area must be experiencing the same and the only way to prove it is to find some neighbors willing to install an agent for a while too.

                                          Read that post, it's quite interesting.
