--------------------------------------------------------------------
Connection drops too often and too long (usually a couple hours until it recovers)
I restarted the router, after 30 seconds power off, reconnected cable
The above is the log from the router. DSL link down - it means the external connection is down, right?
It happens so often that openreach engineers visited twice but found no problems
I started the 2-year contract just 6 months ago, I wish I could terminate the service
Can anyone help what I can do? any techincal stuff I can try? please help me

Thanks. I keep trying to restart the router so it wouldn't have much information.
I do this for 2 hours then it comes back usually - it's been 4 times in this month

It is odd you've had Openreach round and they havent found any issues. Is your hub connected directly to your master telephone socket using a microfilter?

Yes master socket 5c openreach - it's always connected there, I sometimes try to reconnect the cable when it's gone
Openreach engineers visited but at that times the connection was fine. So they just check general stuff, reset the connection, and goes back
Usually this kind of total drop lasts for 2-3 hours until it comes back, and it's happening twice today - it's gone again now. 😞
Maybe I can upload another screenshot when its come back, for you to see other information?

The other day when the northern sky (aurora) hit the UK it happened twice in the same day
But today is very fine, good weather
