Loss of internet throughout the day (regularly)

Hi

I have a hub 4 in modem mode connected to an ASUS mesh. (1Gb service)

Recently I have been losing internet for a couple of minutes at a time on a regular basis throughout the day.

Unable to log into hub (connection refused) to check logs but no issues with ASUS routers.

Disabled all firewalls but still cannot access hub 4.

Any help appreciated

When trying to access the Hub, use a wired connection only if possible in the first instance.

Try a 60 second factory pinhole reset as below;
Remove any ethernet cables from the Hub and hold the pinhole reset switch for 60 seconds. Do NOT reboot the Hub, just let it do it's thing. Note you will need the passwords from the bottom of the Hub afterwards, so make sure they are legible. NOTE this will remove any custom settings you may have set in the Hub, and they will all have to be setup again.  This may allow access to the Hub's console.

Setup a BQM to monitor and record your incoming circuit.   www.thinkbroadband.com/ping

Hi @johnlucas69 

Thanks for posting and welcome back to the community.

Sorry to hear of the internet issues. I'll pop you a PM to help but can you pop the router into router mode for us? This is just so we can do full checks :).

Best wishes.

I have replied to your PM.

 

I will let you know when the hub is in router mode.

Hub now in router mode.

BB quality monitor showing 100% packet loss when outages occur.

After putting hub in router mode, I now cannot connect to hub for logs etc - connection refused (All firewalls disabled)

The Hub should be available via a wired connection on http://192.168.0.1

Eventually got in but its very temperamental. Timeout after password and can only get in again when hub rebooted.

Will now set up a new BQM and hope for the best.

Daughter who also lives in same area having the similar dropouts as me and she is on a newer hub, sounds more of a network issue but we will see how it progresses.
