Moved from EE to Plus Net and now my broadband drops every day.

Hi, 

When I was with EE I very rarely had any issues with broadband it would hardly ever drop.

Since I have moved to plusnet, it happens almost every day! sometimes multiple times a day! It is disconnects while I am trying to do something online. 

Is this something other people have encountered? Is it something plusnet will fix or just bad service in general?

Welcome to the forums, @paulocpinto . Are you on Full Fibre (FTTP) or part-fibre (FTTC)? Whichever, it should happen, and suggests there is fault somewhere.

Can you export your Hubs event log, and attach the resulting CSV file to a post, please?

I would also suggest you report the problem via: https://www.plus.net/help/report-a-problem/

Providing you are on a desktop/laptop, navigate from the homepage of the router to the page in the image attached, click the 'Export' button, and then attach that file to a post.

Is that good or bad?

Re: Moved from EE to Plus Net and now my broadband drops every day.

it tells me you are obviously losing connection, but not why, which the requested file quite probably would.

That's the one, but if you don't mind, I’ll take a closer look in the morning, it is a little late.

Re: Moved from EE to Plus Net and now my broadband drops every day.

@paulocpinto Reading that event log, it appears you may have picked up a fault on the OR network recently which is causing you to lose DSL connection - may be an idea to report a fault via the link in post #3.

I'm no networking expert, but your phone and one other device appear to be losing DHCP on a regular basis, which I don't think is connected, but still worthy of consideration. @Dan_the_Van , am I finding a non-existent fault here?😉

@jab1 

started to look, went out, forgot, then remembered and replied.

Not sure I'd worry, probably a device can't make up it's mind which band it wants to connect to.

There are regular DSL Link down messages, which isn't normal, I'd guess a No Fault Found test.

I'm wondering if the SNR Margin Down would benefit from being 6dB.
