Hello I want to get a new hub, I have a hub 3 for six years and it keeps losing my broadband connection,  it keeps doing it about five times a day, it resets it self for no reason, all I can think it has a problem in the hub, I would like a new hub 4 please

So you want a new hub which may not fix a line problem to get the line problem fixed...setup a BQM lets see how bad it is or at least to the hub if in router mode.

I am sure it is the hub,  the neighbours broadband connection is fine  because we share the little green box on the wall outside. It has lost connection twice today already,  it is getting very frustrating at the moment 

Here are the details

If your Hub3 is faulty and they replace it - it will almost certainly be with an old refurbished Hub3 ! This is due to the well publicised supply issues for electronic kit/components

They are saving the Hub4's for 1GB customers.

I've been able to run through a flow on your equipment and it appears that an engineer is required.
