Connection goes down many times per day. Seems to be getting worse.

I have a Fibre 150 contract using an MT992 Fibre modem and a Sagemcom Fast 5364-3.T8 router.

The connection has been rock solid for several years, up until a few weeks ago when it started to drop out. Sometimes it comes back by itself after a few minutes and sometimes it requires the router to be rebooted. (This has nothing to do with WiFi. The problem is with a wired connection.)

Recently the problem has been getting worse. I counted seven disconnections yesterday, but I think the true number is higher. This is making it increasingly hard to use the internet to do any serious work. Please would you look into this. Thank you.

Hi Alex

Thanks for your reply.

The router is on its way, please allow 24-48hrs for this to arrive.

Let us know how the connection compares with this router.

Thanks

Thank you for the quick reply.

If you think a new router might possibly fix the problem, then yes I'd be grateful if you sent one.

Thanks,

Alex

Hi alex7281

I'm really sorry to hear this.

I've completed a line test which hasn't detected any faults but I can see re connections on the line.

Would you like me to send a replacement router for testing first so we can rule this out? The next step following this will be to arrange an Openreach engineer visit.

Thanks

Debbie
