Internet Connection Problems

We left TalkTalk because we had terrible speed and the connection was unreliable. We joined PlusNet on Monday and since then, we had 3 or 4 connection drops which means out connection to the Internet has failed once a day every day. I want this resolved as I want to use my Fibre broadband without any problems and difficulties since I decided to pay extra for better.

Re: Internet Connection Problems

If the connection was unreliable previously and is still disconnecting now then there is possibly a fault that needs looking at.
There have been a few disconnections, however not a huge amount, is the modem still plugged in to the fibre socket?

Re: Internet Connection Problems

i have been getting the same problems, on average once a day.
i was given a new router as it was "out of sync", everything was fine for 2 weeks, then the last week or so, random disconnections.

Re: Internet Connection Problems

It doesn't look that bad from here.

When it drops do any lights on the router or the Openreach modem go off?

Re: Internet Connection Problems

The broadband light was off however, the light was still off even when we got internet connection again and all the other lights remained the same
