How to fix flashcable not working
flashcable is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach flashcable.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Check Flashcable's status page
Open https://www.flashcable.ch/meldungen/ and compare the report level at the top with a normal day. The page counts user reports in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours and does not probe the service itself, so a spike means other people have the same problem. If the level sits at normal, the fault is probably on your side.
Power-cycle the router
Unplug the router's power cable, wait 30 seconds, then plug it back in. Give it two or three minutes to reconnect, because the modem needs time to lock onto the cable signal. Test a website after the status light stops blinking.
Tighten the coax connection
Hand-tighten the round coax cable on the back of the router and on the wall socket; a loose connector causes dropped channels and slow speeds. If you use a wired device, move its Ethernet cable to a different LAN port. Then load the same site over WiFi and over Ethernet, because that split shows whether the fault is wireless or upstream.
Test on mobile data
Turn off WiFi on your phone and load the same site over mobile data; if it opens, look at your home connection or router first. Try a second device on your WiFi as well, which separates a single broken device from a network fault. If every device fails, note the time and the exact error message before you contact support.
While flashcable is down: what to use instead
- Phone hotspot Use your phone's mobile data for a laptop or other device while the connection is unavailable.
- Swisscom Choose Swisscom home internet if you need a separate fixed connection for longer outages.
- Sunrise Use Sunrise home internet as another fixed connection for your home or office.
- Public Wi-Fi Connect at a library, café, or community centre when you only need short access.

What happens when flashcable goes down
Flashcable is a Swiss cable service for home internet and TV. Homes and small offices rely on it for work and evening viewing, so an outage cuts the connection those things need.
You may see a connected Wi-Fi icon with no internet behind it: pages stall, video calls freeze, streaming buffers and downloads crawl. TV can fail at the same time, with channels stuck on a loading screen or a frozen picture, because the same cable line carries both. A reboot does not help. Reports tend to cluster by area, so one town or one part of the service can be out while the rest keeps working; the status page groups those reports in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours, which makes a local spike easier to spot.

How we track flashcable
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for flashcable, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for flashcable, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from flashcable's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
