Another user whose internet keeps dropping
Per title. Sky says "no known issues in your area".
Hmmmm. A Quick Look at the fist page of this forum would suggest otherwise....
I'm in Aberdeen and been dropping all day.

Re: Another user whose internet keeps dropping
If there aren't any local outages then try running the line test here https://www.sky.com/help/articles/broadband-diagnostic-start
You can also run the test via the MySky app on a mobile data connection.
Once completed, if it reports back that all is good click on 'broadband' to run an updated test. If you get amber or red you need to follow the on-screen instructions.

Re: Another user whose internet keeps dropping
'no known issues in your area' doesn't mean the individual circuit to your own address isn't unstable or entirely out of action with an external fault: in fact if you have no broadband at all then that's most likely.
The message is intended to indicate that there's no identified upstream fault affecting multiple households (and therefore already receiving attention) but unfortunately is worded very poorly and frequently causes confusion.

Re: Another user whose internet keeps dropping
@Yakety after yesterday's storms there are inevitably going to be issues. Call Sky to report yours so it gets fixed but given its New Year's Day the lines will be megabusy as not as many agents on duty.
