Router regularly disconnects, poor performance and the Support is not any better

All,

I have fibre and over the last month I  have experienced regular disconnects and slow downs which are getting worse.

 

Raised a ticket a few weeks back and there was some response but the issue is still occurring and now I seem to have hit a brick wall.

 

Any help appreciated.

J.

It would help in getting a response that did not simply go over old ground if you told us what the ticket said, any testing requested and the results.

Hi,

 

The ticket is 201363237 Essen tally according the diagnostics performed by support disconnects are occurring.

I am now running off the test socket with a new filter and the issue keeps occurring.

For clarity this is the WIFI goes down and the Router flashes orange and takes between 2 - 10 minutes to reconnect.

This is then usually followed by a period of slow internet performance.

J.

@Jacobyte969 

Did/could you report on the ticket that the fault has not been fixed. If not I'm afraid that you either need to wait for a Plusnet staffer to come along or report a new fault.

Hi @Jacobyte969, sorry to hear you're still experiencing issues. I've retested the connection for you and this is still advising there's an issue on the line. I've updated the ticket for you, if you're able to get back to us there we can get this progressed for you.

The Openreach engineer advised that the issue was with the Plusnet Router and I need a replacement.

Can you advise how i get one.

Re: Router regularly disconnects, poor performance and the Support is not any better

Hi there @Jacobyte969, thanks for letting us know of the advice that was given to you by the engineer.

 

I've gone ahead and ordered a new router for you, as a gesture of goodwill for the issues you've been experiencing - we are experiencing some delays with this at the moment due to the current COVID-19 crisis, but this should be with you in the next 7-10 working days.
