Problems after fibre installation

[c46j44i14a10]

Since we "upgraded" to fibre in December we are experiencing buffering that we never had before, drop outs of signal multiple times daily and no landline. We have a new error log being created every ten minutes or so. Our fibre was fitted by a BT engineer but everything else just arrived by post so no sky engineer ever visited. There were no problems with our previous set up so it has to be the sky hub that is the issue and we need to know why we have no landline and no voice light on the hub as we were never told this would happen. As we work from home this needs an engineer to visit as soon as possible as we have tried all of the helpful information on this forum

@c46j44i14a10 Please be advised that you are talking to customers like yourself on this forum here to assist and NOT to SKY, from your post it would appear that you upgrade to FTTP installed by OR engineer

and hub SR203 sent from sky now plugged into the ONT via RJ45 Ethernet connected on the WAN port 4.

As you say you have NO landline, this would now be connected to the rear off the HUB, but as you have

no green light for voice, then there would appear to be someting not set at SKY end to activate the SKY talk package.

You need to call SKY to have the agent look and find out what is wrong.

You also need to log into your account and check which package you have supplied from sky and voice

is part of your request.

You will find the telephone number to call at the bottom off the sky help page.

@c46j44i14a10 you should haveca voicecservice and the voice light on the hub should be showing green. If it isnt the issue needs to be reported to Sky. Full fibre services are normally far more reliable than older systems like FTTC if your's is not it needs to be investigated.

As a first step I am escalating your post to the Sky team who support the forum who should be in touch soon to offer you a private chat session to get this sorted. Keep an eye onnthe forum as if you miss the message just click the chat icon which will be added to the forum pages for you to use.saving a long phone call.

Full fibre  to the property  do you  have  a  grey open reach  box outside  the  house ? and what  speed are you  meant  to  be  getting  ?

[peter-marlow+1966]

I had fttp installed  back in January  and I have  had no problems  with  it, open reach  grey customer  service  box outside  the  house fibre  optic cable  going in 1 side, then out the other side  into the house and into  the o n t box

[peter-marlow+1966]

Everything  I need arrived  before  the open reach  engineer  appointment  and it was  the open reach  engineer  who fitted  all in 2hours

[peter-marlow+1966]

Also the old copper phone lines  will  be  no good  once full fibre  is  available,  you plug the  phone  into  your  router  now and the phone  works that way

Thank you all so much for your suggestions and help. Sky have sent us a replacement hub and this appears to have solved the issue and we now have our landline back! Still having a few issues with some connections but will be back in touch if this isnt resolved.

thanks again all!
