Unlimited Fibre Extra cutting out randomaly

Recently I have upgraded my router from the PlusNet Hub One to a TP-LINK Archer VR2100 because of internet drop outs that happened 2-3 times a day which was effecting my father who has to teach students in online classes.

 

prior to my other post I am still experiencing drop outs on the new router, sometimes it just totally cuts out and all internet access is lost, sometimes I stay connected to everything but stuff like Discord (VoIP) starts lagging and other people's voice starts becoming very jumpy till its inaudible. This happened earlier and I managed to get this log : 

(partial lag / drop)

(This error occured on the 3rd party DNS servers)

I had been testing the default Plusnet DNS but since it had crashed fully today I decided to try and switch out the DNS, these are what I used.  

Primary: 212.31.224.3

Secondary: 195.68.0.2

 

 

 

(Partial lag / drop out)

(This is using default Plusnet DNS)

  1. 2021-01-25 11:30:27 [6] Httpd: DNS 212.159.6.10 resolve succeed for dns.msftncsi.com
  2. 2021-01-25 11:30:29 [6] Httpd: DNS 212.159.6.10 resolve timeout for www.msftncsi.com
  3. 2021-01-25 11:30:29 [6] Httpd: DNS 8.8.8.8 resolve succeed for www.msftncsi.com

 

 

I really can't afford to keep having drop offs and cut outs during the day as it is affecting my dad's teaching and also my school learning.

If anymore logs are needed please let me know and I will be happy to provide anyone with any information that may be needed to help fix this problem.
