Connection DOWN

Hi

 

Can anyone please tell me the likely cause of the error below.  It is happening most weeks and started when we switched to full fiber. We've had a new cable, router and ONT and both Openreach and Sky there is nothing wrong!! (note I changed the IP address to x's)

 

syslog: WAN IPV6 UP

syslog: Lease renewed 3600 ip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx  

syslog: [3739008.410000] eth3 (Ext switch port: 4) (Logical Port: 12) Link DOWN.

syslog: eth3.1 - WAN link DOWN.

syslog: DHCP lease expired from server. Connection DOWN.

syslog: [3739011.432000] eth3 (Ext switch port: 4) (Logical Port: 12) Link UP 1000 mbps full duplex

syslog: Voice IP Connection Down

syslog: Voice Disconnected

syslog: No lease renewal received

 

The workaround is to restart the ONT and router.

Any help appreciated.

If the ONT PON is green then it is likely a known issue that SKy are working on to solve currently, it is a failure at the TCP/IP layer 3 when the physical link ONT PON light is solid green, and effectly loss of the IP connectivity to Sky backend servers.

Re: Connection DOWN

Thank you.

 

So there is nothing that can be done to alleviate the problem?

 

Sky just seem so 'could not careless' about it.

Whilst Sky are looking at the issue you'll have these outages but Sky are activily investigating the issue because it is a global issue impacting many customers, so you aren't alone, once the issue is solved it will be fixed for all experiencing the random outage issues. Unfortunately, there isn't a timescale for how long it is going to take to fix it.

Re: Connection DOWN

I wonder why they are not being honest with me.

 

No one mentions a known issue, I just get the same nonsence checking routines, offers of a new cable etc. None of which will fix it.

 

Thank you for your help
