@Dazabaza24 I have moved this to the broadband forum as you will get more replies than in the Q forum

You said you've tried everything including plugging it directly into the phone socket
How else would you be plugging it in . ?

@Dazabaza24 No statements of intent will get a response from Sky. You need to run the connection test in the MySky app (via cellular connection if the broadband is dropping).
If broadband connection is dropping that much it very much sounds like a line fault. If it detects one, then it should let you book an engineer. It's nothing to do with Skys "quality".
If you don't or can't do that then you will have to call Sky.
If it is indeed a line fault, leaving Sky will not fix the issue. It will just follow you to the new provider.
The phone lines and infrastructure are maintained and can only be touched by Openreach, whom Sky and all other ISP's lease the lines off of.
Posting your router stats as others have suggested will also allow the forum to see if there could be a fault.
