Connection dropping

I've had plusnet for 3 weeks and although the speed is ok the connection drops all the time meaning that I can't stream anything for longer than 10 minutes or so. Any idea what causes this?

Re: Connection dropping

I've not had the chance to connect with an ethernet yet as the point is miles away from my computer/tv. I'll check the internet light next time it drops to see if it's the wifi or not.

We've seen a couple of disconnections but not a significant amount:

 

 

Let us know how it goes if you can test an ethernet cable.

Re: Connection dropping

Thanks for the graphic, that's helpful. I've just switched to another socket that had been painted shut and things seem to be running much smoother! I think that may be problem solved.
