Technical problem, that revials a terrible support. Any solution?


Sorry for English. Since 23.04 (8 days from now) I’m having a home internet conection problem.
Some random DNS resolution errors. “DHCP client stoped” every 2 minutes, 15 second to restart.
I am loosing the internet connection for 15-20 seconds every 2 - 5 minutes. I am getting 15 seconds disconnections about 100 times a day!

After the first call to NOS support, they sent a cable guy to my home. He checked the cable and said that “the cable is good, the problem is on central, wait till Monday”. 
On Tuesday, another guy from “technical” support did nothing but asking me to wait till Wednesday (because of the blackout) and gave me another 20 GB of Internet to my phone.
Today is the end of Wednesday, the problem is still there, the data base of “support” center didn’t worked the whole day and I am waiting another day! Not because of technical problems after the blackout, but because NOS doesn’t have a proper client support.
A “technical” support can not simply listen to me, check my logs, file a ticket and properly address the existing problem to other people in charge. All they can do is restart my router, give me another 20 GB of mobile internet and say “sorry sir I don’t know what the problem is please wait till tomorrow”.
What is that? Are you serious?

At least here on forum, would someone maybe tell me where do I have to call or where do I have to go to finally find a single person who would know what to do?
I am seriously waiting for an answer, or for a phone call - *********

One more week like that and I’m immedietly switching the provider. And “2 years minimum” wouldn’t stop me, I’ll figure my way out in no time.

If the ticket is already opened and if they told you you gotta wait then you gotta wait.

That’s the whole point. No tickets were openned. 
I gave ‘em a call and asked “What information do you see linked to my account?” 
They answered: “I see that the cable guy visited you recently. That’s it, nothing more”.
After, I asked to put me on the line with the proper department. And the guy over there, instead of listening to me, kept repeating: “please wait untill tomorrow, we have troubles because of the electricity shutdown”.
I said: “my problem is a week old, it has nothing to do with the shutdown”.
But that man repeated what he said ones again, restarted my router ones again and didn’t submitted anything about my problem.
Fortunatelly for them all, the next day their data base was down, and the next day is a Labour Day.
Meanwhile, today I’m losing the internet connection every one minute and the internet became pretty much unusable.
That’s what I’m saying. The cable guy visited my on Sunday morning. Instead of addressing the problem the same day, noone did anything. Because of that general attitude, it’s been 9 days of “wait untill tomorrow”.
That’s not serious. And I don’t like when people are joking with me.
One more week I would try to keep asking them to do their job. If the problem wouldn’t be solved, I’d just cancel the contract and that’s it.

The messages apper in the router logs, which are accessable on “Logs” page by 192.168.1.1 router address.
The online diagnoctics was done and, as a result, the cable guy (technician) were sent to my house. He said that there are no problems on my end, “problema central”, and left.
The other parts of the story you already know.
Would I finally see any reasonable steps to the solution?

Update:
I’ve got the call from Nos and the caller reconfirmed what I said. The cable guy didn’t filed the problem, he just closed the case like if it was solved. Now, another technician would have to visit.
I hope for the resolution and would update here if needed.

Yes, the cable guy checked everything, concluded that the junction box outside the building is damaged and created a ticket for technicians to repair it. Now we’re moving, that’s good.

João, would you please tell me, where do I have to call or write to ask for a payment deduction accordingly to the amount of days I’m having troubles?
