Sky stream issues

Everyday my broadband cuts out 2 or 3 times, making watching a streaming TV very tiresome. Has anyone got any idea to stop it cutting out? Cheers

@Brettmillsy5 

We did not ask for what equipment you have we asked for your router stats. The link below has a very clear step by step guide on how to obtain those stats.

@Brettmillsy5 

Your stats do show a WAN line drop about 1hr ago. They also show that your download speed is only 72mbps whereas with a line like yours you would expect the full 80mbps. This would suggest there is a fault somewhere although it isnt an obvious one so it may take a bit of work for Sky to investigate it.

 

I've flagged your post to Sky, look out for a message popup on the forum. Tell them you are having multiple line drops per day.

@Brettmillsy5 intermittent line drops are often caused by bad weather while you can report the issue by calling Sky it is not certain Openreach will do anything.

Re: Sky stream issues

I don't know if it this helps but my broadband cuts out every day in the afternoon around the same time and then it affects my streaming services, it is getting ridiculous now, my partner needs the internet as he works from home and what is he supposed to do without it
