Try again, as the night time domain restrictions were in force on my public webserver, I have removed them.

I suspect that is number 6, is that correct?

If it is, then they do have a habit of failing, sometimes for no reason.

Yes number 6. We tried the test socket is that still an issue?

Yes it can be.

Can you remove both parts of the NTE, there are a couple of screws which hold the back piece on?

Behind that, there will be the main test socket, can you try a microfilter plugged into that socket, with the home hub and phone in the microfilter?

Do you have any other sockets or extension phone wiring?

[readjono]

Just unscrewed it
Applied a microfilter and put in the phone and internet.
It did the usual blue green and orange again without touching it

Yes this is our only socket, this has been our setup for the last five or six years

Thanks.

Well I an going to make a guess that your problem is the same as what is described in this thread, as the timing seems the same.

I suspect the home hub is trying to connect and failing at the PPP layer, and the whole thing starts again.

Take a read of that thread, and see if it ties up.

And another one https://community.bt.com/t5/BT-Infinity-Speed-Connection/No-Broadband-for-Xmas-or-New-Year-BT-seemin...

This is a a shorter thread with the same issue.
