Broadband keeps dropping out.

My broadband keeps dropping out leaving my firestick and google nest failing. Tried a service status test but its telling me " Your service hasn't been installed yet."I have been a customer for over 20 year so it has been installed. Any help would be appreciated.

    Check with Area faults on 0800 561 0061 If you have a VM landline 150 this goes down to post code level. You could also try the web service status page, but this is not recommended as it only covers issues that affect a very large number of customers.

    VM will not dispatch any technicians while an area fault exists.

    If no area faults found:

    The primary place to report faults or for service requests is Customer Services on 0345 454 1111/150 if you have a VM landline or wait two or three days for a VM staff member to get to your post. This board is not a fault reporting system nor a direct line to VM.

    Have no time to sit on the phone for hours getting passed from 1 person to another who can't understand my accent. Thanks anyway.

    Does this apply to ethernet and Wifi ?  What do the lights on the Hub show when the connection drops?  Have you setup a BQM to monitor your incoming connection http://www.thinkbroadband.com/ping

    Please post the network log and stats from the Hub.  Browse to 192.168.0.1 and click on Router Status.  Copy and paste the information for comment.
