Hello, I've been on a Super Fibre 63Mbps plan for a few months now and I seem to be getting intermittent brief disconnections on most days. The Internet light turns off on my NowTV router and then proceeds to reconnect itself, the line has been great aside from this persistent issue. Here is an excerpt from the routers recent activity logs showing two disconnections from today:

If someone with more expertise could make sense of what's going on here and point me in the right direction that would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

My knowledge on NOW broadband is limited.
All I can suggest is to call the team to see what can be done. It’s possible there is either an issue with the router or the line itself.

Mate, I've had the same issue since 6 December 2021 and 8 OpenReach engineers later they still can't find the issue. Waiting on the ninth engineer visit, but because engineer #8 didn't close the job off on his computer, number 9 now can't make an appointment. Such incompetence with these "engineers". Sorry, no advice - but keen to hear if you ever get it fixed.

Might not be an issue with your line, but an issue further afield?
Keep pestering support until its resolved.
