Hub 5 broadband dropping regularly

Our hub is regularly kicking off all connected devices (Ethernet and WiFi) several times a day. Service Status for the area has been green every day the past week so it is just a problem for us. How do I get a resolution?

can we see the connection data for any clues - can you do this...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In your browser’s URL box type in http://192.168.0.1 (or http://192.168.100.1 - if in modem mode) (DONT click these links) - and hit return.

As you have a Hub 5 then login on the first page up.

Then Navigate to these “data pages” and just copy/paste the normal “Formatted Text” (not images) 3 FULL sets of data onto here – 2 tables from the Downstream, 2 from the Upstream, & the Network Logs page. Don't worry too much about the formatting it can be easily read & DON’T include personal data or MAC addresses - blank them out - if you copy/paste the data, the board software will do this for you (you may need to click the "submit" button again). If character limits are “exceeded” - just do two posts
______________________________
Also, If you haven’t already, set up a free, secure and “offlsite” - “Broadband Quality Monitor” to continually monitor the state of your connection and record any true network dropouts , latency issues, packet drops, etc - it will thus allow you to differentiate between those and simple wifi dropouts. It does it 24/7/365 and it keeps a visual record of any/all of your network disconnections, useful data to have to match to the Network logs (in your Hub settings) and also in discussions with VM - note it will take a few hours to start seeing a sensible picture - post up the “link” to the “share live graph”. Click the lower link (Share Live Graph) then, click generate. Copy the text in the Direct Link box, beware, there may be more text than you can see. On here click the Link icon (2 links chain to the left of the camera icon) In the URL box paste the link you copied and then click OK

Stats ok but I havent a clue what's going on in the logs - and the BQM has what looks like the mysterious cyclical packet drops that has been reported on here a few times recently - and I dont know if they were ever resolved.

Hopefully someone else can comment soon

I do not work for VM. My services: HD TV on VIP (+ Sky Sports & Movies & BT sport), x3 V6 boxes (1 wired, 2 on WiFi) Hub5 in modem mode with Apple Airport Extreme Router +2 Airport Express's & TP-Link Archer C64 WAP. On Volt 350Mbps, Talk Anytime Phone, x2 Mobile SIM only iPhones.

Thanks for taking a look. Will look up threads on packet drops.

I have now tried selecting the ‘Block fragmented IP packets’ box in Firewall settings, which was the only one deselected by default. No dropped pings on the graph since doing this nor breaks in Ethernet or WiFi connections in the house. Crossing my fingers this may have been the issue - broken data coming into the Hub from outside causing it to engage the Firewall function perhaps?
