Hi, I'm hoping someone here can help me with an intermittent internet issue.
For the last few days I've been having multiple internet dropouts per day and i've tried all i can to resolve the issue.
I've removed and replaced all cables, reset the home hub and even reset the hub to factory. The WIFI remains up and devices able to see each other on the LAN but the internet drops out.
I've setup an external broadband quality monitor to prove that its a fault with the internet/hub rather than my wifi/router and can see that my IP address has many dropouts per day where it is totally unreachable.
Any help/advice will be greatly appreciated as I'm having to use mobile hotspot as currently the broadband is completely unreliable and I've had a few meetings where I've lost connection part way through.
Below is the BQM showing what im dealing with.
