I've been having problems for the last 2 weeks or so, whereby my internet connection keeps dropping randomly, multiple times (usually between about 5 times) per day. Note that it's not the *WiFi* signal from the router that drops, but rather the internet connection itself. The middle light will go out, then flash orange and the connection will return after about 4/5 minutes. There is no logic to why or when this happens. It's becoming incredibly frustrating and I am getting grief from work when I randomly and regularly drop off video calls.
Engineer came out last week, ran a bunch of tests, could see nothing wrong with my line or setup. He made some tweaks at the local exchange, but the problem persists.
Interestingly, I am coming up on exactly 1 year with NowTV Broadband. I had an almost identical issue about 6 months ago which was resolved when NowTV sent me a new Hub Two router. I find it strange that I have the same problem again after 6 months of use with that second router. Does the Hub Two just have a reputation for being a poor piece of kit? Does something "break" in it after 6 months of use?
I'm really at a loss as to what to try now. I'd rather not stump up £100ish of my own money for a decent router, but at least if others have experience of the Hub Two being poor then I might have an idea of where the problem lies.
