Recently my broadband keeps dropping out, then re-connecting. I am not using the sky provided hub as I have been with sky for so long that the hub I had was just so old. I am using a TP-Link Archer VR600.
I was able to get into the router and get these details:
Also even whenn I am connected I am not getting the 63Mbps speed prmoised, I'm only getting:
Any help or ideas would be appreciated, or maybe I just need to ring up and get an enginner out?
Many Thanks
Nick

Re: Broadband keeps dropping out
High noise margin and a load of errors on downstream. Definitely looks like a bad fault but sky does need you to use their hub to diagnose the fault

Re: Broadband keeps dropping out
As @cookiemonsteruk has said you have a line fault, however Sky likely wont book you an engineer until you plug the Sky hub back in so their tools can identify it

Re: Broadband keeps dropping out
Many thanks for the swift replies, I really appreciate the help, I have plugged old hub back in and these are the statistics:
Does this still show that the probelm is on the line? And if so how do I go about booking an engineer?
Many Thanks
Nick

Re: Broadband keeps dropping out
Just moderated the image which shows a dire line fault made worse by using the obsolete sky sr102 router
However both routers do pretty much say the same

Re: Broadband keeps dropping out
Your line attenuations suggest you should get 80Mbps whilst the ds noise margins are off the chart . Internal or external sky should book an engineer for you

Re: Broadband keeps dropping out
I'm having issues with my sky hub as it keeps losing internet, I have had a sky engineer out to have a look who said it was to do with open reach so he booked an engineer to come out, they attended and said that it was an issue with the line inside the house and replaced it, however not even 2 months down the line I'm having the same issues, I can't watch anything as I lose internet connection every minute or so and this is now getting frustrating as I can't access anything I need access to for work, any ideas on what is going on?
