No Ranging Response received - T3 time-out

Hi all,

I've been having frequent drop outs of my 200mb line for around 2 months now. Had an engineer out who replaced the hub but it didn't help our problem. Inspecting the network logs on the hub show the readouts below.

Very frustrating problem as we use the line for work, hoping someone from the support team can shed some light.

Too many upstream T3s and large number of downstream Pre an Post errors. Unfortunately because these figures are accumulative since the hub was last power cycled we need to find out the current situation. So please turn off your hub for a minute and then turn it on, this will reset the counters. Next after say 2 hours post a new full set of stats, we can then see if the figures are too high.

Hi cneeson467,

A warm welcome and thanks for posting. Sorry to see that you're currently experiencing issues with our internet services again. You advised you've had a hub replacement but this has not resolved the frequent drop out issue. 

We have checked the systems form our end this morning and can see that you are experiencing short term connectivity issues. 

I have raised a fault ticket on your behalf regarding this issue. It has advised this issue should be resolved in the next 24 hours, however, if you're still experiencing issues after this time, please come back to us. 

Kind regards Jodi.
