New customer since January
I have to keep resetting the modem / router every time the internet connections drops to get it working again.
Have sent a complaint about this and will ring tomorrow to check if this is a frequent issue.
Oh internet gone again whilst posting this, so using mobile data. 🙂

Commiserations 😢
But note that this is a Community of customers of Now, like you, and Now staff are vanishingly unlikely to see or read it.
Just so you know.
However, on the plus side, it would seem you are in touch with the Now Broadband team over this, who should be able to investigate excessive drops for you, so that either they, or Openreach alerted by them, can fix any issues found.

To follow up from @RoyB this is my default post for anyone experiencing internet issues with NOW.
Below are some standard things you can and probably have done before calling the team.
Have you done a factory reset to the router indicated in the link below?https://help.nowtv.com/article/improve-broadband-speed
You need to call the broadband team. See link for number.

Is the router dropping the connection to the internet, or is the wifi dropping out?
Try connecting to your router via ethernet, does it still drop out? what does your connection log say in the router config - ie uptime
Have you tried setting up a BQM such as the one available here: https://www.thinkbroadband.com/broadband/monitoring/quality
what does that reveal about your line?
