Internet losing connection

We've had sky internet since January, initially we had an issue and ending up having to wait for an engineer to install something, since then we constantly have issues with the internet losing connection. I'm not sure whether everything was installed correctly in the first instance, but as you can imagine this is causing us no end of problems as I work from home, and rely heavily on having an internet connection to carry out my work

Wi-Fi is the connection between devices and your hub. Broadband is the actual internet connection provided by the ISP (in this case Sky).

If you haven’t done it yet use this link to check to see if there are any broadband problems or outages nearby.

This should determine if there's an identified fault perhaps affecting multiple households.

If there aren't any then try running the line test here

You can also run the test via the MySky app on a mobile data connection.

Once completed, if it reports back that all is good click on 'broadband' to run an updated test. If you get amber or red you need to follow the on-screen instructions.

If you’re still having problems you may need to call Sky to report it. Dial 150 free from your Sky Talk landline (if it’s still working).

This link providers information about the coloured lights on the various hubs

Its worth adding that for customers working from home remember that Sky Broadband is a domestic service so you won’t receive any extra or quicker support.
