Fibre connection dropping out

[jem16]

After years of flawless BB connection, I have been experiencing drop outs recently ( 4 or 5 within the last 4 days) with the HH6 showing an orange light. Only way to restore my connection is to reboot the router.

The router is connected to the master socket which is a filtered socket separating BB and phone line. Phone line itself is working and, although a little static, seems quiet enough.

Would this be a router issue as it's now quite old or a line issue? I can't get far enough back in the Event Log to check what it says.

can you check your phone line - dial 17070 option 2 should be silent and any noise is a problem and could be cause of unstable connection so would need reported as phone fault to 151  best done with corded phone

I've tried the quiet line test and no noise.
