Signal Interruption to Router HELP

Question

New(ish) customer here.  Fairly happy except that the signal to the router is frequesntly interrupted, requiring me to close and open my browser several times.  Obviously something up here.  Have shut router off overnight, etc. still happens at the beginning and during each session.  Do I need a service call? FIOS is new to this neighborhood.

Answer 1

Wow that's a bit overwhelming.  her ya go:
What do you mean by "signal interrupted"?  The wireless signal? 
No, although I assume it is out if the hard wired desk top isn't revceiving a signal.
The MOCA signal from the ONT to to the router?  The fiber signal from the CO to your ONT?  Can you be more specific?
I am asuming the MOCA signal is out because the COto ONT signal is out.  Although I have never gone to the garage to look at the box. my guess was the fiber signal to the house was being interrupted.
When this happens, what are the lights on the router doing?
Sometimes all are out, sometimes one greenlight is on, not blinking. Sometimes a few are on, not blinking. Often re-opening a browser (where i have always received a message the internet connection is lost) will begin the happy little green light dance on the router and reconnect to the Internet. Sometimes only a router reset does the trick.
Does the internet LED stay green? Or does it turn orage.  Never have seen an orange light on the front of the router.  See above.
How are you connected to the router?  Wireless or cat5? Do you think we unenlightened users are supposed to know what a cat5 connection is? I am connected to the router via an ethernet cable less than six feet in length.
How is the router connected to the ONT?  coax or cat5?
Again, what's with this cat5 business?  There is a coaxial cable to my router from the (ONT?) box in the garage, about 20 feet away, same floor.
When this happens, what are the lights on the ONT doing?  Haven't checked yet, but next time it freezes i will.
Does the Network (fiber)  LED stay green, or does it turn red? YOu're talking about the ONT aren't you? See how I've learned? Again I don't know.
Likewise, what is the MOCA light doing (if you have a coax connection to the ONT).? It seems, oh sensei, that I will have to check the ONT to get a before and after idea of what is going on.
Granted all this is an irritant only, but DSL was steady, and I was told the FIOS signal was constant unless there are bigger neighborhood or system problems.
