On the sky hub voice led changes amber. No other lights change. And the ont has no red lights on it. It's like it just stops communicating somewhere. The logs don't show anything else other than what I've put in the original post

@MD3 

What do you have connected to ethernet port 4 of your Sky hub? The ONT?

@jamesn123  Looks like the connection dropped just under 38 hours ago.

 

@KRC1471  You said that you have to daily re-start the router the router has been up just under 300 hours.

@Highlinder 

I was more interested in looking at the exact rx/tx of the router because they mentioned packet loss & the BQM shows packet loss after 8am.

Re: Internet Drops out on FTTP Service

From reading other threads it seems to be an issue with Sky's equipment in the exchanges. I know people on FTTP with other ISP's that don't have the same issue. To do with not enough addresses being issued I have heard. Sky need to sort it out as if the router was able to reboot and the connection come back online it wouldn't be so bad, but as it doesn't, it means anything connected at the time loses connection. Not great for security cameras for example.

 

FTTP should be more stable that FTTC and yet it seems Sky are dropping the ball on this one.

 

I'll be voting with my feet and changing ISP when my contract is up. I don't want to, but I also want an Internet connection I can rely on!
