Internet keeps resetting after about 20 mins

I have recently just paid for the sky sports for the whole month on my PS4 now tv, and just my luck it keeps restarting my router and going off after about 20 mins, I normally pay weekely and it's normally fine, it's doing my head in now, all other apps work fine like Netflix etc just now tv, please someone help because paying 33 quid for sky sports and it's not working is a joke lol x

It's a combination of the use of a ps4, now tv and talk talk because individually they all work, but when used together it all falls apart

Hi @Anonymous User

 

Thanks for getting in touch with us.

 

Are you still having issues with the PS4 app?

 

Do you get an error message with this or does it just cut out?

 

Thanks

The only error message I was getting was WiFi connection lost. Mine is OK now, having gone back to an older router firmware.

 

Does the app send a permissions request or something similar every ten/fifteen minutes? If so, I think this was being refused/blocked by the router - but how did the app then force the router to reboot?

 

Be good to know if you have any thoughts on this, Rob-T...

I've got the same problem - TalkTalk fibre large with boost, ps4 and the NowTV app reboots the router every ten or fifteen minutes while movie playing. Router shuts down completely and reboots. Amazon streaming and all other apps fine.

 

I know that my router had a firmware update - up to 1.2 - so I wonder if that might be causing it? Spoken with TalkTalk and they say they can't remotely load an older firmware, so they're sending me a new router to see if that helps.

 

Or have NowTv changed something with their app/permissions in last few days that might be causing this?
