Re: Network/Hub Keeps Disconnecting

I suggest you run the faults bot - you have a bit of 'headroom' as your line attenuation (distance from the green cab) is short, but you shouldn't be having so many DSL drops.

Re: Network/Hub Keeps Disconnecting

There are a couple of observations here...

  • When was this contract last renewed?  This is clearly a 40/10 provision and for a good while, services are supposed to be on a fast as you can go profile ... which is much fast than the 40/10 reported
  • Given that you have so much SNRM head room, frequent disconnections would seem to point conclusively to an issue with the d-side circuit

If you have had a lot of such issues, then a d-side lift and shift might be appropriate.  I thing this needs staff escalation.

Superusers are not staff, but they do have a direct line of communication into the business in order to raise issues, concerns and feedback from the community.

Re: Network/Hub Keeps Disconnecting

I think you are probably correct, @Townman . Wonder what the bot will come up with?

Re: Network/Hub Keeps Disconnecting

Apparently thats all i can get. I have struggled to get past the first line of plusnet tech defence so far i.e. get to the advisor and the usual have you turned it off spiel. Is there a better route?

Re: Network/Hub Keeps Disconnecting

Looking at the Technical Log, @dom_trig , you should be good for an 80/20 connection. Do you still have a land-line phone connected?

That 'advisor' is useless, and needs sacking.

Re: Network/Hub Keeps Disconnecting

OK - thought that might be the case if you renewed this August, but it was just an idea.

Trying them again will be a waste of time - you'll just get the same stupid question.

 

@Townman Can you escalate?

Re: Network/Hub Keeps Disconnecting

Check the Openreach service projection for your location.  Those stats clearly show better is possible … but with the state maybe not stable.

This needs second line support.

@Gandalf any chance of a shove in the right direction please?

Re: Network/Hub Keeps Disconnecting

@dom_trig Just for my interest, can you attach the results from here: https://www.broadbandchecker.btwholesale.com/#/ADSL/AddressHome - hiding your address?
