Intermittent WiFi Erin Woods

Is there a problem with WiFi affecting Erin Woods (Calgary) today. Very intermittent and poor when its there. Websites won't load, streaming keeps cutting off or termination, etc, particularly when using mobile.  Pretty awful.  I don't see anything in "Outages", but "something" seems to be quite wrong!

@MontyP -- inside your residence, are you using WiFi to connect from your device to your Shaw cable-modem?

From the cable-modem to Shaw's network, the connection uses coaxial-cable, not WiFi.

So, if you lose your WiFi connection, it could be between your device and the cable-modem, or it could be from the cable-modem, out of your residence, to the nearest telephone-pole.

Can you experiment by connecting an Ethernet cable from your computer to your cable-modem, to see if bypassing your WiFi network eliminates the outages?
