Disconnections daily

Hi, after one and a half month of no disconnects I've started having issues again. Last time it was due to some phone line fault which you guys have fixed. 

As of 17th May, my Internet disconnected once and I was put on interleaved, ever since its been disconnecting almost daily, sometimes twice a day, I was then recently put on the even more stable profile with higher latency and even slower speeds but it still proceeded to disconnect daily, TT status page said 'your broadband connection could be improved' and said that there was intermittent disconnects taking place. 

 

Recently tried turning router off for over 30 minutes which didn't help. Then last Friday I connected to a test socket and left it there over the weekend, it's still connected to it, since then there have been no disconnects for two days, and service page says I've got a healthy connection. Dlm still not made my any changes though.

Hi

 

this is the profile at this moment as reported via Openreach when testing. We have no immediate control over the profile and it may change however this cannot be guaranteed.

 

Thanks  

Karl.

Historically it's come back to a faster profile as long as the line remains stable with no disconnects. Just over a month ago I was on fast path until disconnects started happening. I trust it will come back as there were no disconnects for 7 days. Also interleaving can't be low when I went from 18upload to 13up, 59 download speed to 50-53 and ping went from 6 to 23-26

Hi

 

The profile itself is set at 80 Downstream / 20 upstream Interleaving Low, so DLM has set this as the best determined profile for the line so this may not change.

What do you mean, I'm not talking about the package, I know I'm on 80/20, I'm talking about the DLM profileike fast path and interleaved, I'm currently on the extra Interleaved profile, which has added 20ms latency, and reduced download and upload speed.

Hi

 

The DLM profile is showing currently as 80/20 and has been set this way from 28th, so the profile is correct and cannot increase further.

 

Thanks  

Karl.

Yeah that's good, sadly tho after 7 days of stability the DLM still not changed profiles, perhaps there are still many errors? Are you able to check error count?

Hi adrian555155

 

The line is in sync at 56mb. Please can you try a 30 minute power down of the router (please only try this once) and then run a speed test?

Yes that's okay thanks, hopefully it will remain stable. If it disconnects again I will try connecting again to test socket and leave it for longer than last time, as I would really want to rule out if that's a problem.

Hi adrian555155

 

This may have been DLM adjusting the profile.

 

The connection has remained stable since this date. I will check the connection stats again on Friday to see if there are any further re connections, will this be ok?

 

Thanks

Yes, first disconnect when I reconnected the faceplate and later that evening the Internet disconnected by itself.

 

Message 18 of 29

Hi adrian555155

 

The line test is not detecting any issues and your line is in sync at 56mb.

 

I can see 2 re connections on 02/06 was this when you re connected the faceplate?
