I tried to fix my packet loss issue about 3 months ago, but it never got fully resolved. Since then an attenuator has been added to fix the power levels to a normal range, but the loss is somehow even worse than it was in October. If there is a fault in my area it has not been resolved for months. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Some of the worst days:
Seems fine in the morning and then really bad at all other times.

Hi Reece,
Thanks for replying. Unfortunately the estimated fix time has passed and we are still experiencing the same issues. Could you please look into it for me. Is there any reason why the packet loss only occurs after around 4pm? Knowing that might lead to a solution to the problem.

This was today its getting even worse which is ridiculous. I am seriously considering moving to a different provider unless this gets resolved quickly.
