Consistent Disconnections

Every day or two pretty much my internet goes down.

The logs on the router show this: How do I fix this?

Hello dylanuk1

There was the odd bit of area upstream noise then that may have accounted for it, it seems to have settled down a bit recently and remains below our threshold for escalation. Hopefully things have improved for you.

Thank you

Hi All,

I've the same issue.

Engineer out on Monday but would love to know if I can fix this myself (done the usual stuff already).

Hi yermasyerda, 

Welcome to the forums, I am sorry to see you have been having trouble with your connection. 

How did the engineer appointment go? The connection seems to be ok from this side. 

If you are still having trouble let us know and we will be happy to take a look for you. 

All the best. 

Emma

I'd be interested to know the outcome as well as I've been going through the same for the last couple of weeks. I have another engineer visit booked for Saturday (following a HUB replacement and check-up by another engineer last week). If there's no resolution, I'll be leaving Virgin media after 14 years (since NTL days).

The customer experience when trying to contact someone who'll engage with the issue is very frustrating.

[jamesgrp]

I'm having the same issue, ongoing for a month.

Customer services are a joke, 3 engineers booked over one month - 2 cancelled as I received a txt message stating the issue has been fixed and the Eng appt has be cancelled.

I got through to onshore who seemed to help but the raised complaint was "lost" - created a new and now at least there are notes on file.

Had arranged a 3rd Eng to come to site even though they have been told multiple times that it was not a line or modem fault, Eng came - all stated as nominal. Eng stated he would follow up with manager though saw quorn was set to 64 (not 32). nothing ever heard again.

Service is yo-yo'ing today again:

Hi athanak,

Really sorry to hear this.

Can you try restarting the router and monitoring how long it takes before the issue re-occurs? 

Thanks

Ben_N

[annasafner]

Hello, I'm having similar problems, every single day and today is especially bad, connection failing for 3 hours now. The network log repeats these ones:

Received response to broadcast maintenance request, but no unicast maintenance opportunities received - T4 time out;

Lost MDD timeout

RCS partial service

SYNC timing synchronization failure - Loss of Sync

No ranging response received - T3 time-out 

Any suggestions how to fix this?

[dylanuk1]

my solution eventually fixed itself - but now it is happening again.

sorry I am not sure what fixed it then but I have reposted here to ask again
