Intermittent broadband connection
Our broadband keeps dropping out today, sky q box can't hold a connection and all devices keep dropping the signal.
Tried testing the signal in the sky app, it just states that there's no problems. I've reset the router 3 times so far, and it works for about 10 minutes then starts dropping out.
We're in the Chelmsford area.
Any suggestions?

Re: Intermittent broadband connection
Try running this line test to see if it finds any faults:
https://www.sky.com/help/articles/broadband-diagnostic-start
You can also run the test via the MySky app on a mobile data connection.
After this has finished and if it reports back all is good click on broadband to run an updated test. If you get amber or red please follow the on screen instructions.
If someone has helped you then please click on the LIKES button in their post.
If you need help please provide as much information as you can

Re: Intermittent broadband connection
Thanks, I've tried that numerous times this evening. When the broadband is working it says that I have a "good connection", and when it has dropped it says "cannot complete task".
think I'm going to give up until tomorrow.
thanks for the help.
