What are you doing on the internet at the time for the internet to rezone?

@Mark-Rider you can call Sky and talk to one of tgeir customer service agents. Lines are fully open from 8am to 9pm and some cover is tgere from 7am to 10pm but you will need to be patient and not accept the bot's offeres of texts etc simple say report a  technical fault usually works,

 

However if you run the connection test in the My Sky app while the connection is up the system can book an engineer if it finds a fault which is quicker and easier. Click to run the test again if the first result says everything is fine.

Can one try disconnecting all devices from the Sky router and then see if the broadband line continues to drop on an hourly basis?
