TV, Broadband and Internet Outages

In Newcastle area. For several weeks now I am getting, blackouts to tv, fibre signal, Internet. With no connection reported. This has increased this week with frequent outages, very unreliable now over the weekend. When it is up signal is very slow. Reported on down detector, checked sky outage and often the check itself is down during the outage. Clearly something external with the service is broken.

If you haven’t done it already use the below link to check to see if there are any problems or outages nearby
https://www.sky.com/servicechecker
(This should determine if there's an identified fault affecting multiple households)

If there aren't any then try running the line test here
https://www.sky.com/help/articles/broadband-diagnostic-start
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

(For any customers working from home remember that Sky Broadband is a domestic service so you won’t receive any extra or quicker support).
