Hi There.

 

The large blue button with "Contact our team" written on it, within the "Fault timeline" does not work hence me being here.

 

I seem to be struggling to obtain the guaranteed 54Mbps when I run a speed test then line check etc. 

 

My telephone number is in my details here I believe. 

 

Not sure how to proceed. I have the one master socket in the flat, with a filter to split the signal (old type flush LJ3/1A socket) no others to interfere with.  Wifi Hub is directly connected to that. Cat 7e cable, new filter and ADSL RJ11 cable bought to replace what I had which was very old.

 

Thanks.

Yes the line test is picking up a potential issue. If you'd like us to arrange an engineer visit to investigate further can you confirm:

 

  • That you accept potential Engineers charges
  • Provide availability, either AM (8am to 1pm) or PM (1pm to 6pm) between Monday to Friday.
  • Confirm your mobile number

I've also sent you a PM to confirm some other details

 

Thanks

Hi Chris.

 

The line test you guys did showed a protentional problem somewhere on the line so I think it would be nice to have it checked. 

 

I will be at work though from this Friday till next Monday then off from Tuesday the 14th for the whole week. 

 

Thanks.

Hi Chris.

 

Just plugged phone directly into socket to check.

 

Very strong dial tone, could not hear any hissing, crackling, popping etc. 

 

Thanks.

Hi binz01,

 

When you tested with your old phone was there a dial tone? Was there any noise on the line?

Hi.

I had issues with my other router that I  was using (TP-Link Archer). I finally got the Wifi Hub out of it's box about two weeks ago to check if it was my other router causing issues. But it's occurring with this one as well, so I don't think it's the router at fault as I have seen higher speeds once or twice last week or the week before. 

 

Thanks.

Hi binz01

 

Thanks for your reply.

 

Would you like me to send a replacement router first so we can rule this out?

 

The next step will be an engineer visit to the property. (Openreach)

 

Thanks again.

No other extension. I don't even use a phone other than my mobile. I have an old phone that's put away and only brought out to check if there is a tone when plugged in.

Hi binz01

 

I'm sorry to hear this.

 

I've completed a line test which has detected a potential fault towards the property and Openreach are requesting that we arrange an engineer visit.

 

Just to confirm, you have no test socket? but the router is connected directly at the master socket?

 

Do you have any extension sockets in use?
