Broadband dropped out 4 times

My broadband has dropped out 4 times tonight.
I have reconnected but my speed is a quarter of what it was
It was 5.5 and is now 2
Tested on speed test website
I had the new technicolor router last week and it has been fine up until tonight.
Any ideas ?
Thanks

Hi beaky32,
I've checked your connection and it's still syncing at the same rate as it has been. Are you connecting wired or wireless?
@Velocity, Are you using a wired or wireless connection?

Re: Broadband dropped out 4 times

I am connected through homeplugs hardwired to my router ?
My laptop is connected wirelessly.
Speed was great before but has disconnected 4 times last night, also keep sgoing back to login screen of router which tells me that the password I am entering is wrong ?
It played up all last night .
BTW I would kill for the speeds above..lucky so and so....Will Fibre ever make it to our little village in Wales I wonder ?Huh
Once again thanks for your help !!

Re: Broadband dropped out 4 times

Are you getting the same speeds through a wireless and hardwired connection?

Was using wireless, but have now sorted the problem with a LAN connection, so I am wired now
