Connection keeps dropping
We have full speed fibre broadband but over the last three to four weeks have had a lot of issues with connectivity- Reset router many many times and still struggle to have it stay online for more than 5 minutes at a time.
these are the stats for our router - Would be great if someone could help diagnose the issue

Re: Connection keeps dropping
Those aren't the full router stats but from what I can tell it looks like FTTP or G.fast with a modem. If it is FTTP then the router may be rebooting by itself which would be a faulty router that needs replacing. To obtain a new router contact Sky by phone on 150 from the house phone. If the phone isn't working because it VoIP and the connection then a superuser will need to escalate the post because of a likely faulty router to Sky.
Zen internet on FTTP (900Mbps down, 100Mbps up).

Re: Connection keeps dropping
Hi - Thanks for the response. We have FTTP and the router is rebooting every 5 or so minutes so much so that its become unusable. We now have an engineer booked for the 4th of June.

Re: Connection keeps dropping
Your wifi bands dropped almost at the same time between 38 and 46 seconds prior to posting. This may indicate a faulty router or a very powerful electro magentic source
