      Hello sirsquiddy.Thanks for your first post and welcome to our community.
      Sorry to hear you're having an issue with your connection dropping out.
      I'd like to investigate this for you.
      If you don't mind, I'll need to send you a private message to pass security. 
      If you can check the envelope at the top right of your screen, that would be great.

      Thanks for your time today sirsquiddy.

      Now we've arranged an engineer to attend and adjust the signal levels, would you be able to let us know how the visit goes?

  • Engineer been, nice guy! Moved the router to a different room and replaced a part that was plugged in with the correct one for the router type. So hopefully all good now.

      Just keep an eye on the DS PostRS errors, they should, on a good circuit, remain at or close to zero.  Rising numbers indicate a problem still exists.
