These experinces I'm encountering are on both Gaming platforms which is Playstation network and Xbox live. I first noticed that when it disconnects for either networks I can't reconnect even though I still have internet connection on my on my laptop or ipad?
After many countless times of being disconnected an observation I made is that the router which is a tenchicolour the internet and wifi light flashes rapidly as though there is a lot of activity downloading/uploading etc, when in reality I'm the only one home and no-one and I mean no-one is accessing the internet when the lights are rapidly flashing I can't connect either the Xbox or PS3 until the lights stop flashing and then It is pot luck when I do reconnect how before the lights start flashing again and I get disconnected in turn I have to wait approximately 20 to 30 minutes for the router lights to calm down before I can reconnect and gaming could last then between 20 seconds to maybe 30 minutes if lucky it like I'm being capped but when I check on my laptop during the mad router lights flashing I can connect to the internet for browsing etc on my laptop or ipad but the game consoles won't connect to the internet?
Was advised by Plusnet staff to change my channel which I have but still encounting the same problem.
Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

The Wireless and Internet light are quite alright to flash, this is explained in detail in the User Guide that comes with your router. Do you experience lag when playing games or frequent disconnections?

I understanding the flashing lights on the router, it's when I'm the only person home and no other device logged onto the network so no activity as such normally you would not see the flashing light Internet and wifi lights in question flashes when one one is using the Internet but several times a day the router flashes like mad as though it downloading large amount of data when no one only myself is at home and not using any devices including the console, It when this happens that i get disconnected or can't connect to Xbox live Playstation network, after approx 20/30 mins when the flashing stop on the router I can then connect to ps network or Xbox live then I might be ok for 10 min or even upto 2 hours if lucky then the problem arising again. Also yes I do get lag when playing black ops 2 on ps3
Hope this makes sense and really appreicate all your help.
Thanks
Den.
