Internet packet loss

Hi,

I get frequent packet loss on my home broadband. Past 24hrs is particularly bad (see BQM).

Previous days would have perhaps 1-2 very short 'outages' but still cause interruption to every device in the house. 

Some background info:

  • I've reset / restarted numerous times
  • Connected devices are a mixture of WiFi and Ethernet - both affected when outage occurs
  • Wi-Fi connection are 2.4 and 5

I've had this problem since installation in January. 

BQM past 24hrs

       Sam knows test attached but the problem is intermittent. I guess I'll have to just catch it when it occurs.

      I'm just trying to work out if this is 'normal' (ie daily short outages)

    Yes, the packet loss is visible in the BQM.  Post the power levels, Pre and PostRS errors and network log from the Hub for comment.  In the meantime, check all the connections are at least "finger" tight, as loose connections can cause noise ingress on the circuit.
