Router reboots every day

Hi. My fibre router seems to be restarting every morning at about the same time. 8am approximately. Anyone else having this problem? Anyone have any suggestions? Cheers.

Thanks for your post @smifo11 welcome to our Community Forums.

I'm sorry to see you're having connection issues.

Looking at a graph of your connection I've attached below, it doesn't look like the broadband signal into your router is dropping frequently. I've also tested your line and that's not showing any issues.

Does the light on the front of your router change colour consistently every morning?

Hi, thanks for having a look. Yes the router runs through the usual flashing lights and Amber light thing. Like it's restarting, but it's not had a power down.

Hi @smifo11

Is your router plugged into the master telephone socket with no extension cabling between your router and the socket?

Also if you've not done so already, it may be worth plugging your router into the test socket explained Here because this should rule out any internal wiring from affecting your broadband connection as this can cause a connection to drop.

Let me know how it goes.

Yes it's in the main socket. But I'll try the test one and let you know. Many thanks

Awesome, sounds like a plan. Cheers
