Lost connection Wired system

[martynwjones]

Hello Team,

I am getting intermittent outages on my broadband wired connection (I am not using wireless).

I have looked at my logs and I see this:

Can you take a look for me please?

I have checked all the wired connections and they look good.

Thanks

Hello Team,

Installed the new router on the weekend.  So far so good!

No drop outs at all.

Thanks for your help!

Hi Mart,

How are you getting on?

Thanks

[Debbie-TalkTalk]

No problem 🙂 @martynwjones 

The router is on its way, please can you use the new cables and filter that arrive with the router too.

Please allow 24-48hrs for this to arrive. Let us know how the connection compares.

Thanks

Debbie

[martynwjones]

Yeah - lets try that.

Thank you for your quick response (as always)

Hi @martynwjones 

Are you happy for me to send a router now?

[martynwjones]

Well - that's good news!

Not had a router recently

[Debbie-TalkTalk]

@martynwjones 

All done 🙂

The line test is now clear. Have we recently sent you a new router?

[Debbie-TalkTalk]

Morning @martynwjones 

Perfect, I will start the line test now and post back once it's completed.

[martynwjones]

Morning,

I have removed the faceplate - please let me know when I can reconnect 🙂

Thanks

Morning @martynwjones 

Thanks for your reply.

The line test is still detecting a loop fault. Would it be possible to remove everything from the line (including face plate) for 15 minutes so I can run a line test with everything removed?

[martynwjones]

Hello,

Yes, connected directly to the test socket.

Hi @martynwjones 

Thanks for your reply.

The line test is also detecting a loop fault and this can often be caused by internal wiring or equipment connected to the line.

Is the router connected at the test socket at the moment?

[martynwjones]

Hello - thank for getting back to me.

No, we haven't been using the landline for a while now.

Hi martynwjones

I'm sorry to hear this.

The line test is detecting a potential fault with the landline service. Do you use your landline for making calls?
