Each day I am working at home for the last month or so I have frequent drop outs to near 0 speed between 9:30am and 10:30am. Before the clocks changed the drop was between 10:30 and 11:30am. I am often at home on Tuesdays and Fridays and some tImes other days
What can be done about this to find out what is going on? for that hour it means I can not do any video calls as they all drop out - I spend most of my day on online meetings. At all other times everything is usually ok.
I should add that is is not a wifi issue as this happens on a wired connection.

Hi @crbell,
Thank you for your post and welcome back to our community forums. We're here to help.
I am really sorry to hear that you've been facing some issues with your connection speeds recently which appear to be dropping intermittently. Have you been able to set up a live BQM yet as @jbrennand has suggested? That way we can take a look at your connection in real-time.
Thanks,

I have tried to do that but I am just getting a complete RED graph no rise and fall. Perhaps I did something wrong. I will have another look.
I went into the office everyday in the last week to avoid the problem!

Hi @crbell
My BQM sometimes goes all red.
It often starts working again if I reboot my hub.
You should also double check that your ip address hasn't changed.
Open a browser page and go to https://whatismyipaddress.com/
That shows your current IP address. if it's different to the one showing in your BQM then you need to set up a new BQM with the IP address showing on that site.

Just to add re the BQM if you have the hub in modem mode and are using your own router then you will need to check that the relevant "respond to ping requests" setting is enabled (probably in the firewall section).

Finally managed to have chance to get the monitor working last night, (had to set ping allowed and reboot). Thanks for everyone's help with that.
Of course the problem has not happened today!

Hi @crbell thanks for your post here in the community although I'm sorry to hear of your concerns.
Can you please confirm if your Hub is in Modem Mode or Router Mode? If in Modem Mode, could you place this in Router Mode and let me know if the issues still persist?
Many thanks

It is in Router Mode. I have been at home a couple of mornings this week and the problem has not occurred, so it looks like it may have gone away. But I have the monitoring going now so I will keep an eye on it. Thanks everyone for the help.

Hi crbell,
Thanks for taking the time to update the thread and let us know you have not experienced the issue for a few days.
I just wanted to check in and see how things have been since your last post?
Thanks
