Wifi drops out

Dodger272 — Fri, 08 Nov 2024 07:23:58 GMT

Hello, I reported my wifi dropping out and an open reach engineer tested my line etc yesterday. He told me the cabling and line were fine and it looks like a problem with your router. He said he would report this with his job notes. I then received an email from talk talk saying an engineer had fixed my issue, and any questions post on this community. I loose connection even when the router lights are on. The open reach engineer and myself think I need a new router. Please advise.

Hi Debbie,

Sorry for the late reply, it's been a busy busy week, and I don't see notifications of these chats unless I'm looking back to sort out emails.... any way, yes I have received a new router (thank you very much for arranging that). It came Friday and I haven't had chance to set it up yet, it is on my list of jobs to do tomorrow.

My issues seem identical to yours, I've had the chats and re-setting of my router to factory settings twice already and the issue still persists. Maybe it's because I migrated from Shell recently. How do I go about requesting a replacement router?

Thanks

You must start your own thread, @Demetrius1.

For most issues, ex Shell customers are being directed to the Shell Migration team for support, so please ask for that department on live Chat after 9am, Sunday.

If you still need support via the forum, return to the message board and click on start a topic to begin your thread.
