3 disconnects in the past 24 hours

Hey there, 

 

In the past 24 hours I've been disconnected from the internet 3 times.

Can someone help me figure out why it's doing it?

Re: 3 disconnects in the past 24 hours

Hi @Theo1612,

 

Our tests aren't picking up exactly what's causing the issue so we will have to do some troubleshooting to start ruling things out.

 

I'd recommend starting with basic checks here

 

And if that doesn't help the next thing would be to rule your internal wiring out by plugging the connection into your test socket which is under the faceplate of your master socket and seeing if the drops stop. This rules out internal wiring, face plates and extension sockets as being the cause. How to locate the test socket and set your connection into it can be found here

 

If the problem still persists from here we will go down the route of raising a fault, please click here and let us know once you've done the checks and raised the fault so we can progress it for you.

Re: 3 disconnects in the past 24 hours

The disconnects have gotten worse, at least 4 of them in the past 24 hours, what's the point in paying for a service if I get something so sub par.

 

( 226.550000) PPP LCP Send Termination Request [User request]

 

Every time the internet goes down, this is near it, WHAT IS IT AND WHY IS IT CAUSING ISSUES?

Re: 3 disconnects in the past 24 hours

Hey @Theo1612,

Thanks for getting back in touch with us.

I've performed a few tests over your service and I can see your connection has dropped quite a fair bit over the past couple of days as per the below graph. If you aren't already please make sure you're connected into the test socket. Is there anything in your property that may be causing these drops? I.e. Hive, Nest, baby monitors?

Re: 3 disconnects in the past 24 hours

I've been using the TW-9970 now for 6 hours and all seems well, although I have been having issues with my ping again, it increases if I watch any video online, which is not good, I managed to sort it by taking the static ip, will the static IP need to be reapplied as I've changed routers?

Hi @Theo1612,

 

Are you connected into your test socket? Your static IP will not need to be reapplied either by us or you.

 

Thanks.

Re: 3 disconnects in the past 24 hours

Yes I am, the reason I ask is because the router has an option to take the ip adress from the isp instead? Should I choose that option and put the static ip in?

Re: 3 disconnects in the past 24 hours

Also, the previous Plusnet router, would a factory reset help with the disconnects? The tp link one hasn't disconnected from the internet all weekend. If not could I get a replacement router sent out?

Re: 3 disconnects in the past 24 hours

Hi there, 

 

It's easiest to leave the router to pick up the IP automatically and you'll get assigned the same static IP, it would only change if we had your account set up for dynamic IP (which yours isn't)

 

You can always try a factory reset but the best way to rule the hardware out is to try another known working router, we'd only look to replace such hardware if there was a clear issue with it but given the issue you're having that's less than likely. 

 

Thanks for reporting a fault with us by the way, that's already with Openreach and we'll update you as soon as we have a further response from then within the next few days.

Re: 3 disconnects in the past 24 hours

The issue doesn't happen with the tp link router, it's only the Plusnet router I'm having issues with, therefore it's a router issue

Re: 3 disconnects in the past 24 hours

OK, sorry for missing that part of what you were saying! 

 

If you can give a factory reset a try in that case and if that doesn't help please let me know and I'll ship a replacement out to you.

Re: 3 disconnects in the past 24 hours

Hi Adam, 

 

I've factory reset the router, is it normal that the internet details stayed on it?

 

Also, are you able to check if it has the latest firmware?

Re: 3 disconnects in the past 24 hours

Also, can you reapply the static IP, my ping fluctuates and last time taking the static ip fixed it, so I'm hoping a reapply will fix it again

Hi @Theo1612,

I've responded here. Moving forward I would ask that we keep our conversation contained to one thread to avoid any confusion.
