Buffering / Streaming issues

Tuning in

For the past week I find that I’m having to reset my hub multiple times per day whilst watching Netflix / iPlayer etc. This is a new issue and becoming pretty annoying now it’s a daily occurrence. The TV is hard wired to the Hub. 
Imagine a screaming toddler when Justin doesn’t get to find out what’s in Mr Tumble’s spotty bag!! 

Our mobiles / other devices also get booted off the WiFi when this issue occurs. 

Could it be a hub issue? I did a speed test using my phone and get 105mbps (when it’s working).

This has also coincided with the letter informing us that our broadband is going up by £3.25 a month (not end of contract increase), so thinking of looking into more reliable alternatives.

Your upstream levels are way too low.

Unless there’s an area issue or outage you’ll need an engineer to rectify

Sorry - I don’t seem to be able to find those pages. I’ve been able to login to admin pages of hub. But I can’t find the logs. 

You don’t need to login. Just click router status under the login page.
