Hi, since last week, my router is  rebooting while watching tv. The amber light starts flashing and I then lose connection. Very frustrating! I have switched off for 5 minutes, but still get the same issue.

 

I recently received correspondence to say my router was no longer supported by yourselves, so can you please send me a replacement one which is.

 

Thanks very much

It is literally just the router which keeps flashing to amber and losing connection, while it reboots. I have only noticed it while watching TV at the moment.

No worries, as I am running tests I will need you to answer some questions for me Chris:)

 

Does the problem occur everywhere you try and use the WiFi, or just in certain parts of the house - for example upstairs, or outside the house?

Yes they will as we will use our mobiles.

 

Can you keep me updated please with your tests.

Openreach has a dedicated team to deal with vulnerable customers, and these are identified as Emergency Welfare Cases. An Emergency Welfare Case is where the customer has a life-threatening illness and applies to repair cases that have a total loss of service In-life or in a provisioned state that requires the urgent restoration of service.


Will you (and anyone who lives with you) be able to contact emergency services while your services remain impacted?

No worries, we will get to the bottom of this:) 

 

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.

Thank you very much for confirming, I will need to run checks for you to determine the cause of the issue, just to confirm as you did mention in your original message that the amber light starts flashing and you  then lose connection, you can say that you are experiencing dropping connection so that I can run relevant tests to your issue?
