Re: Current line speed

Hi there, 

 

We're still seeing that the connection is dropping every few hours following Saturday so there could be an underlying fault. 


Diagnostics don't show anything obvious but I'd try the checks here next: https://goo.gl/tu2WWu before reporting a fault over at http://faults.plus.net

Re: Current line speed

Hi Adam
Just got home from work .
Took these pictures from the router
My son said he reset the router this morning to try to get the speed to sync higher, everyone was on the net all Day Sunday gaming/streaming nobody recalls any disconnections ... as you can see we are at 59 meg ...just the current line is still 28meg thanks for your help if you still think I need to report a fault let me know I don’t really want to waste anyone’s time if all it is ,is a stuck profile

Re: Current line speed

Fix

Hi there.

I've bumped up the speed profile on your account now.

When you've got a chance can you reboot your router and let us know how your speed looks?

Re: Current line speed

Taking you up on that ..
While the speed has been fine ....the lag and packet loss is unbearable at times .
I have to reset the router once a week which seems to work ... I’ve been connected to the test socket for over a week and have still had the lag and had to reset to clear the issue.
Before the problem with the drop in speed in this thread the connection was rock solid so I’m thinking there could be a problem somewhere on the line .
Please advise on the action I should take ie report a fault or can you guys help out from your end
Thanks scott

Re: Current line speed

Hi Scott.

Our tests aren't finding any issues. Are you using WiFi or a wired connection?

Re: Current line speed

All wired except for phones and iPads
But when the lags starts on the consoles and the pc ,the phones and iPads have problems like web pages won’t load and FB and other apps won’t connect even though the WiFi is showing a full connection on all of them.. have to reset the router then it’s ok again for a while ...
