Internet Dropouts and High Ping

Hi, recently i am getting more and more frequent disconnections from the internet, it appears to be a login issue, i don't appear to loose sync, just it logs out and back in again, it gets worse in the evenings

 

Also now my ping to websites is really high and gaming is almost impossible

 

Tracing route to bbc.co.uk [151.101.0.81]
over a maximum of 30 hops:

1 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms 192.168.1.1
2 * * * Request timed out.
3 * * * Request timed out.
4 297 ms * 335 ms 195.166.143.132
5 185 ms 331 ms * 195.99.125.144
6 297 ms 291 ms 313 ms 109.159.252.160
7 297 ms 280 ms 226 ms 195.99.126.81
8 * 235 ms 227 ms 151.101.0.81

Trace complete.

 

I am hard wired to a gigabit router

unfortunately no options of FTTC or FTTP in my area as none of the cabs at the exchange have fibre

Any ideas on getting my latency improved?

Thanks

Re: Internet Dropouts and High Ping

Hi there.

I'm sorry to hear you're experiencing connection problems.

Our tests are finding a potential line card fault at the exchange, so I've raised this with Openreach now.

I'll update your account with more info soon, but we should know more within 1-3 working days.

Apologies for the inconvenience caused.

Hi there,

 

I see the ticket has been closed, but the issue has not been resolved

I have had at least 10+ disconnect/reconnects in the last hour, so something still isn't right, seems to get worse later in the evenings

Thanks

Re: Internet Dropouts and High Ping

We're not seeing that on our end as shown below.

Can you confirm if you normally connect over a wired or wireless connection?
