HH5 Event Log entry "CWMP: session closed due to error: Could not resolve host"

[anwright]

For several days my Home Hub 5 has been losing broadband connection for a few mins 7/8 times per hour. Checking the hub event log it shows the message "CWMP: session closed due to error: Could not resolve host".Connection is lost for bothe wired & wireless.The BT helpdesk suggersted moving cables to different yellow slots on the rear of the hub, to no avail.

Frustratingly, the 4 online chats I've initiated on this issue have been curtailed due to losing the broadband connection............

Any suggestions please?

What's the firmware recently updated?  I would try a factory reset using the recess button on back and holding 20/30sec until lights flash

Thanks for the quick reply.
Not aware of the firmware being updated, but will try the factory reset & see what performance is like thereafter.

I have now had HH5 reset for 12+ hours & the issue has only reoccurred once, so it looks like your tip is a good one - many thanks!

Sorry to be a gloom merchant , but if the fault lies between your HomeHub and bt equipement {not it your Home wiring ]  in the Exchange then the   ''CWMP: session closed due to error: Could not resolve host" and others may keep happening and another one that causes the disconnects '..
'''PPP LCP Send Termination Request [User request]''.
Unfortunately if the disconnects continue the DLM equipement  at the Exchange will reduce  your Ip profile /BRAS to make your connection stable , therefore a slower download speed , try not to disconect/ switch off/restart  your router too often as the DLM will see that as an unstable connection. I assume that you've done the quiet line test , dial 17070 and your teliphone line should be virtually noise free, if not Report a Phone fault , not a Broadband Fault !!!!

...these are some of my understanding of repetative Disconnections  /stuck BRAS which seem impossible to resolve , until something happens at the Exchange !!

Thanks for your feedback - noted.

The quiet line test was fine.

At the time of writing the line has been stable all day.

...I wish you good luck, and no need to pull out your hair in frustration !!

That ''Tip'' may have corrected something , but it was Not a Solution to the ..

##"CWMP: session closed due to error: Could not resolve host"##

I and many others are still waiting for a reason, and a real ''solution''  for why this keeps happening , and most importantly a way to stop it happening , and how to prevent our Download speeds dropping  !!

I think you are mistaking cause and effect, the CWMP session closed is probably due to a line problem.

Is there any noise on your line when you carry out a quiet line test on 17070
