Router keeps dropping out

[wJanet1]

Good afternoon,

I'm having problems since yesterday afternoon, my router keeps dropping out, flashing orange going back to solid white for between 2-5 minuets. I've run a line test with TalkTalk but there was no problem found. I've also reset the router a few times to no avail.

Thanks

A line test has not identified an issue outside your premises. As you've indicated changes or damage may have occurred we'll check this next.

I'll guide you through the checks - ensuring any damage or setup issues that could have caused the disconnection from the Internet are identified and resolved.

If these steps don't resolve the issue then I'll look at other potential causes. Thanks

Perhaps it might be that, please confirm if any of the equipment is physically damaged?

Hi,

yesterday the water board were drilling about 2 doors down, whether it’s that I’m not sure.

Have there been any recent changes in your home that could have impacted your service?

For example - new or replacement equipment, building work on the premises or damage to any wiring in or around the home?

Thanks

You should be able to see the power light on the front of the router.

If this light is on, your router is receiving power.

Just to verify, is the router currently powered on? Thanks

Do you have any issues with calls on your telephone line? Thanks

[siphosethu-TT]

I can see that your Internet connection is currently offline.

This means that your Internet, WIFI, Email or TV Service will not work properly.

We just going to fix this okay. Thanks

Great! Do you have any active monitoring for life threatening health reasons which is solely dependant upon your TalkTalk Broadband or Telephone line?

For example a care alarm, lifeline, health pendant or fall detector.
