Some Rogers customers may be questioning their purpose in life, as the company’s internet service is down for the count for select customers in Ontario and Quebec.
According to various tweets online, Rogers internet is down for the count for some customers, with some outages starting this morning:
First day back after some time off and @rogers has been down for 6 hours. 🤦♂️ #ldnont

@BlueJays @rogers you can’t even get your WiFi working at the @RogersCentre. And my internet has been down all day at home and spotty all last week. Time to make a switch. pic.twitter.com/pbAlY74VXy

Internet down here today again since noon. Dropping you like 10th grade history. Pathetic service, unreliable.

Downdetector is showing customers saying their Rogers internet is down or intermittent, with mentions of Toronto, Thornhill, Kanata, Mississauga, Newmarket, North York, Orangeville, Cambridge, Alliston and more being affected today.
An iPhone in Canada reader let us know their Rogers internet is not working in the Montreal area (Dorval). The Rogers app has a message that reads, “we’re working quickly to resolve a wireless network issue in your area.”
The Rogers internet outages are giving some of these customers flashbacks to the devastating internet and cellphone outage that occurred nationwide in July, where 13 million people were taken offline.
It was just last week Rogers touted it was “committed to Canadians”, reiterating its plans to strengthen networks for reliability, and plunging $20 billion over five years to do it.
Are you experiencing any issues with your Rogers internet right now? Or from earlier today?

That’s terrible. Stuff like must not happen today, nevermind if it ever did 20 years ago or 10 years ago. Everything is too dependent on Internet these days for six hours downtime.
At this point, it seems like Rogers is just punking their customer to show how much they can get away with.
Eddy boy in action….with a CFO running a Telco. What could go wrong.
Love how the internet is down after they promised “better.” Also how they invented a new math with these “5 days of credit” because if it was truly five days then they short changed me by about $4.
