I have a openreach gfast modem and the internet light is permanently out. I have software  that monitors my network connection and this is a sample from that,

I have had a new router  TalkTalk but this problem remains. I understand that the gfast is no longer supplied. Therefore is it possible that TalkTalk can supply a replacement modem?

I have fitted new modem and no problem with that. My internet monitor connection app to says I have no internet for the last 13 hours, as shown by this.

 I DO HAVE INTERNET CONNECTION and have had all the time so I have to assume that monitor app is at fault. I will therefore call this subject closed and return old modem to you as requested. Thank you for your help.

Hi @fizz1983 

 

I'm sorry to hear this.

 

The line tests are clear - no faults detected.

 

If the connection continues to drop (including wired connections) then the next step will be an Openreach engineer visit.

 

Please let us know if you would like us to arrange this?

Hi Debbie,

I have been away and found the parcel had been delivered yesterday. Whilst away and using my laptop on another system I found I was still having same issues therefore changing modem may not help.

I did a bit of research and in the end I reset the network connections on my laptop. All the time I was away I had no problems and since being home I have had 20 hours with no problems. I was going to wait a day of two before fitting new modem to see if I had solved the problem.

Have you received the modem or the delivery notification for the modem?

I have ordered a replacement modem, this will replace your current modem and also the TT router.
