Checked mine, seems ok
yours maybe BT perhaps

Ann · Apr 24, 2009, 07:55:49

Maybe it's the WBC thing at last. It still says date is set for March 2009 when I check SamKnows. And apart from last night when it was peak time which is why I noticed, it's been all fairly early mornings.

I seem to be answering my own question.. ho hum.

talos · Apr 24, 2009, 08:04:03

Never mind, I do that all the time

Rik · Apr 24, 2009, 08:56:30

Could you run Routerstats for a while, Ann? That would give us a bit more information about the cause of the drops.

Sebby · Apr 24, 2009, 13:22:41

Indeed. It's probably surges of noise.

Ann · Apr 24, 2009, 15:26:24

It's happening mostly when computer is off!

Rik · Apr 24, 2009, 15:27:28

Worth leaving it on for 24 hours to try and get some data, Ann?

Rik · Apr 24, 2009, 15:34:56

I've had your line tested, Ann, it's fine. IDNet show your last connection at 14:13 on February 3, no drops since then. Either the router is mis-reporting or something else odd is going on. You have a 6.5Mb profile with interleaving on, so no signs of DLM kicking in either.

Ann · Apr 25, 2009, 14:30:13

Thank Rik. Line looks terrible judging by these stats..

Has anything changed recently within your property, Ann?

Ann · Apr 25, 2009, 18:26:56

Not that I know of Sebby. I'm not that bothered at the moment as it still works. I'll cry when it breaks completely!

Rik · Apr 26, 2009, 07:18:36

That's weird, Ann, because that's detailing re-trains which IDNet are not seeing. That suggests to me there may be an exchange fault, which isn't affecting the radius server, so they don't see any break. I'd suggest you contact them on Monday with those stats.

Ann · Apr 26, 2009, 09:09:40

Okay, I'll send an email later today. Thanks Rik.

Ann · Apr 28, 2009, 17:00:18

Looks like it's my router playing up. They don't last long do they?

Rik · Apr 28, 2009, 17:02:26

I find they either go on for ever or play up in short order, there seems no happy medium.

Sebby · Apr 28, 2009, 21:48:08

You're absolutely right there, Rik.
