A bit basic I know but have you checked the power adapter is plugged in properly at both ends and the integrity of the cable

Yes, sorry, my bad description, it flashes red and drops the connection, then everything starts working again after about 30 seconds.

This happens multiple times per day.

Do you have a new master socket 5c MK4 where the front clips on and no screws. If so there are posts where it did not clip on correctly and was slightly loose which caused drops in connection

Re: My BT Homehub keeps rebooting

Looking good after the factory reset, I'll grep the logs for disconnections in a bit, but today will be my acid-test - lots of meetings.

I do have a 5cMk4, it didn't seem loose, but I popped it off and on again just to be sure.

Thanks everyone.

After doing a broadband test the system wanted to book an engineer for me - is this normal practice or does it indicate something may be amiss?

I've had that message. I would just ignore it if everything's  working OK
