Internet - Keeps going down for a couple of minutes at a time - several times a day

Our internet keeps going down - we only noticed this about 3 weeks ago but it is now very annoying. We work from home so although it might only drop out for a couple of minutes at a time, anything you are working on crashes e.g. if you are on a teams call etc. 

 

I have done the usual tests on the app several times and this suggests everything is working but clearly it is not. I have also done a full reset on the router but this has also not helped.

 

Last time it happened, I watched the liqhts on the Sky Q hub - The power/wireless lights remained green but the middle internet light went out completely. After about 2 minutes, it then flashed orange, then completely orange and then back to green.

 

I have added stats from my router below. Any ideas how to resolve this?

Hi @Perfectionists 

Your stats show the drop along with a raised noise margin which is limiting your speed due to the fault.

I've flagged your post to Sky, look out for an email or message on the forum

After speaking to the customer and running some tests we have raised this to Openreach and sent an engineer. Thank you for escalating 🙂
