My network connection keeps saying unavailable, however the tests say everything is fine.

My network connection drops 5 or 6 times per day for 10 to 15 minutes a time and then reconnects without me doing anything. When I run the tests it initially says 'there is a problem with your network connection... lets fix it', but then once the tests have been fully run it says everything is fine. I have re-booted a number of times, but the problem keeps coming back. (I have a big house so there is a booster to take the signal to some parts of the house, if that is relevant.0

You have sent an engineer out, who changed the inlet socket for a new one that doesn't need a splitter and ordered a new hub, which is in place and up and running...and it hasn't made the slightest difference. Our connection keeps dropping in the same way it did previously. Also, we have noticed that each time it does we use a lot of mobile data as the phones connect to 4g rather than using the internet in the house. So, not only is this inconvenient and very frustrating, it is also costing us loads of data each time it happens. Please re-open this  case and get it resolved ASAP.

Many thanks

Continuing ‘no internet connection’ issue.

How do I get a sky expert to contact me again? They have tried to correct an issue with my internet constantly dropping and have changed the phone inlet socket, tested the lines, and given me a new hub, but it is still no better. They assumed they had fixed it and closed the conversation...but it is no better.
