Broadband

I am hoping someone can help. Sorry for the long push but with working from home I need a stable connection. Up until last week I was getting the speeds I pay for and bt can see this on there side. From Monday last week the speed dropped and was losing connection. They said last week I had a bad week with it dipping. They sent an engineer out who said everything was fine. Still not getting the speeds I pay for. So I contacted bt again who are again sending out another engineer on Wednesday not sure what this one can do that the other one did. They also sent me out a new smart hub which I put in on Saturday. I am at a lost end as nothing has changed my side nothing moved or installed.

Re: Broadband

welcome to the BT community forum where customers help customers and only BT employees are the forum mods

in order for the forum members to help please can you post the stats from your router (if hub enter 192.168.1.254 in your browser) and if  HH5 then go to troubleshooting then helpdesk and if HH6/SH2 then advanced settings then technical log information . 

Have you tried the quiet line test? - dial 17070 option 2 - should hear nothing - best done with a corded phone. if cordless phone you may hear a 'dull hum' which is normal

 

enter your phone number and post results  remember to delete number   https://www.broadbandchecker.btwholesale.com/#/ADSL

Have you turned off smart setup in hub manager


Someone may then be able to offer help/assistance/suggestions to your problem

Re: Broadband

The first engineer clearly wasn't diligent enough and didn't find the fault, your line stats are terrible. Hopefully the next engineer will have more success.

Re: Broadband

Well hopefully the engineer on Wednesday can resolve it, as not had a problem since last Monday and then it started dropping. Working from home I need a stable connection.

Re: Broadband

sorry not sure what I am looking at, as I was looking at the Line attenuation as this is higher than it was on last one i done.  Also my dsl uptime seems to be dropping over the last couple of days it start at 5 hours is this normal as i thought it should show longer than this,  Is it worth still having the 2nd engineer check everything over.
