BROADBAND CONNECTION KEEPS FAILING ! Over Six mont...

Hi all
I have broadband option 1, I never exceed my download limit. Sometimes it works fine with connection speeds between 4 and 8mb/s and I am happy with that. I use Hub 3 now on a wired ethernet connection with Wireless disabled most of the time unless I am on the laptop.
However about once every 2-3 weeks, and then every day for 7-10 days my connection goes down completely - I lose broadband altogether for between 1 and 4 hours a day. It sort of sporadically comes back up during that time but its at dial up speeds and I cant even load a full page of Google, so basically I am without a connection. Its usually in the afternoon, starting about 3-4pm or in the evening staring about 8-9pm. It has never once happened in the morning ! Ever !!!
I have tried emailing and ringing BT help desk well over 50 times in the last 6 months. I have been fobbed off with every nonsense excuse under the sun from "you are working offline" to "sometimes web pages are too busy to be loaded". I have changed my hardware to the latest Hub 3, changed all my microfilters & hub wiring. I have uninstalled my Antivirus & Firewall, Reinstalled it (Norton 2011), run full virus scans daily, done Windows updates, even tried THREE completely different PCS.
The problem persists with the same symptoms on each PC.
I think its safe to say that this isnt a problem at my end. Its sporadic. Sometimes my PC is on when it happens and I just lose the connection. Sometimes its off and when I turn it on the connections not there.
Obviously I have tried rebooting, resetting the modem, going through the whole BT online Help process but none of this brings the connection back, basically I just have to wait.
One thing I have noticed is that when this is happening my connection speed changes (initially 4-5 then 5-6 etc and currently 8-9). I have put this forward to BT as an issue - IE that they are changing my line speed and thats why my connection becomes unstable but their senior engineers deny this completely (I have the email).
So I am stuck guys.
The helpdesk is manned by very polite individuals who are friendly and try to be helpful but sadly all they do is read from Crib Sheets and really cant help at all.
On Friday they ran a line test while my broadband was down and found a fault, I was supposed to get a call back on Saturday but of course being BT that never happened so I am still waiting.
Any thoughts - I am pretty shocked BT have allowed this problem to persist for 6 months - I expected better !

Hi thanks for that.   I am connected to the master socket as far as I know its a plain socket with no lines across and the plug is dead center. There is a second socket in the kitchen with a phone there is simply no way I can connect a PC to that socket and leave it there for several days to try it. 
I cannot run the Speed Test - it just times out although I have run it in the past. When my connection is failing I cannot even OPEN the speedtest page let alone run it. Given that this is an intermittent fault isnt it just pointless running these things when its all working  ? 
When I run the quiet line test on the phone I hear a constant faint Hiss, its a corded phone so I should hear nothing - so that might be a problem

  • BROADBAND CONNECTION KEEPS DROPPING WHEN UPLOADING PHOTOS TO MS SKYDRIVE

    when i attempt to upload photos to MS skydrive in Firefox, my broadband connection keeps disconnecting and reconnecting all the time. However if I try and upload photos via IE8, i have no such issues.
    Any explanations for this bizarre behaviour?
    Thanks

    Morning
    Thanks all so much for the replies :
    If you are streaming content then I would recommend using an ethernet connection between your hub and PC as wireless is subject to to many forms of external interference"
    Ethernet cable?  I am not sure what one is, I think this is how I was connecting when I was with Talk Talk.  Is it where you connect to the BT phone socket with a little white box thingy?  Please let me know.  To be honest, I thought the whole point of the setup I have now was the newest technology which did away with that sort of connection.  Can you please let me know how I can try this.  With thanks again for YOUR reply.
    I think I have latest version of Adobe Flash Player  I removed my existing version last week and uploaded newest version.  Please tell me which one I should be using.  Please also let me know if I need anything other programme that would help.
    Keith - I haven't tried an ethernet cable as I've said above.
    Please please more help.  Would it be possible to speak to one of you guys on the phone OR a TECH person in the UK - I'm sure they could help me with the problem because they could guide me through what I have to do.  It must be a UK call centre (please) - I almost go into a nervous breakdown when I have to speak to your help centres in Asia.  With very many thanks.

  • My wireless connection keeps failing.

    My wireless connection keeps failing.  I turn off the wireless and it resets and works however it is temporary.  Any suggestions.  I bought my Airport Extreme 11/2012

    Hey there Chrismcknz,
    It sounds like your Wi-Fi connection from your Airport is dropping and when power cycled works for a very short period of time before stopping again. I would next try a hard reset, and test the issue. Then if needed reset it to factory default and test again. The following article explains what the resets do, and how to do them:
    Resetting an AirPort base station FAQ
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3728
    Hard reset: Resets the base station back to an unconfigured state, but retains the last saved configuration and any profiles so you can restore your base station from previous settings.
    Factory default reset: The same as a hard reset but also removes any saved configurations or profiles.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Broadband connection keeps dropping, often without...

    Equipment:  I have an ancient hub (curious-  do we get updates to these or do we just have to make do for years on end?), the first black one which is curved and it has been fine since I got it from a friend some years ago to replace the dinosaur white one BT supplied me with the day I got Broadband.
    It is plugged directly into the master socket via a filter which has the only other other piece of equipment on it- a phone.
    The Problem:  Since about the time I had the BT Talk function turned off (December 2013) the Broadband connection (not the Wifi) has been dropping daily.  After that date I noticed that it would drop just whenever I got a call on the landline phone.  I didn't address it then because I get perhaps five or six calls a week on my landline and so it was not noticable or an issue.
    But tonight it even dropped after just a few seconds in a Google Hangout;  something I was able to do last week without problem.  I am assuming it is because of the talking, as it must be similar to Skype etc?  In total it has dropped randomly about 7 times and 6 or so times during the Google Hangout which I had to abort.
    Summary of problem:  Basically it is as though the removal of the BT Talk triggered the Broadband connection problem which is increasing in frequency and severity.
    Actions taken:  I have power-cycled, checked that I don't have a buzz on the phone-line, unplugged, checked and replugged the two cables (power and phone cable to hub).  They are not damaged/loose/wet/different from normal.  I have also used the trouble-shooter online at BT.
    Aside:  What I can say is that over the years I have had horrendous problems with total loss of Broadband/telephone and even worse service with BT constantly blaming my "equipment" for the problems and every single time it turned out to be their equipment or even their engineers at fault (one simply unplugged us at the junction and gave our line to someone else and, though, I reported it within minutes of it happening and why, it took days for them to undo) so that I am not entirely surprised that something is amiss.
    Question:  I am hoping someone here has an answer so that I don't HAVE to phone yet again (I have spent in excess of 60 hours on the phone with BT over the lifetime of this service with 37.5 spent to resolve one incident) or, worse, get billed £480 for nothing.  DOES anyone know what I can do to sort this?  Does anyone know what is wrong?  
    Please and thank you.

    Thank you for your reply john46.  
    It sounds like a possible high resistance joint have you tried connecting to the test socket and see if that resolves the problem it will also remove the risk of any charges when an engineer attends as they will have to to resolve the problem 
    Yes.
    The only thing I haven't done is tried another filter.  Will try that tomorrow.  However- it does seem awfully coincidental and nothing has changed here with the hub sitting less than four inches from the master socket as it has always done.
    Then again it could just be that the hub is not up to par and the removal of BT Talk might just have been its death knell (mind you- I didn't even have a BT Talk phone any longer- that would have been with the first hub at the princely sum of £70 which never worked due to our line just being too "poor" or something very technical like that).
    I am not sure where you have got the figure of £480 from as you will only be charged it the fault is found on your internal wiring or equipment
    I didn't "get" the figure of £480 from anywhere.  BT did.  They charged me £240 for something which was their fault because the lass, allegedly in Bangalore (I grew up on Pondicherry, not too many miles away), misunderstood syntax and presumed to bill me for something the engineer already determined was not my responsibility.  And when I telephoned to tell BT that I had been billed in error her colleague billed me again instead of refunding me:  £240 + £240 = £480
    It took an inordinate amount of patience on my part to explain this to a third BT customer service person as they (naturally) refused to believe me when I reported their colleagues' errors.
    Had it not been for the 36.5 hours previously spent troubleshooting another problem for BT staff (38 of them- I have all their names and various flights of fancy written down somewhere) I'd have thought I was imagining things.
    And so, when the engineer unplugged my line and blithely connected it to a new house in a junction box three miles down the road (as the better half was driving by no less) and we were able to give BT the time and location of where the "problem" authored from, which still only led to an engineer having to be sent to "investigate" the fault at our end some three days late-  I was no longer capable of surprise.
    It is why I thought to ask if anyone had any experience with connections dropping out here first.  Might save me my last marble.
    Well- it was worth a try.

  • Thin Client connection not failing over

    I'm using the following thin client connection and the sessions do not failover. Test with SQLPLUS and the sessions do fail over. One difference I see between the two different connections is the thin connection has NONE for the failover_method and failover_type but the SQLPLUS connection show BASIC for failover_method and SELECT for failover_type.
    Is there any issues with the thin client the version is 10.2.0.3
    jdbc:oracle:thin:@(description=(address_list=(load_balance=YES)(address=(protocol=tcp)(host=crpu306-vip.wm.com)(port=1521))(address=(protocol=tcp)(host=crpu307-vip.wm.com)(port=1521)))(connect_data=(service_name=ocsqat02)(failover_mode=(type=select)(method=basic)(DELAY=5)(RETRIES=180))))

    You have to use (FAILOVER=on) as well on jdbc url.

    Example: TAF with Connect-Time Failover and Client Load Balancing
    Implement TAF with connect-time failover and client load balancing for multiple addresses. In the following example, Oracle Net connects randomly to one of the protocol addresses on sales1-server or sales2-server. If the instance fails after the connection, the TAF application fails over to the other node's listener, reserving any SELECT statements in progress.sales.us.acme.com=
    (DESCRIPTION=
    *(LOAD_BALANCE=on)*
    *(FAILOVER=on)*

    Example: TAF Retrying a Connection
    TAF also provides the ability to automatically retry connecting if the first connection attempt fails with the RETRIES and DELAY parameters. In the following example, Oracle Net tries to reconnect to the listener on sales1-server. If the failover connection fails, Oracle Net waits 15 seconds before trying to reconnect again. Oracle Net attempts to reconnect up to 20 times.sales.us.acme.com=

  • Broadband connection keeps dropping off

    Hi everyone, anybody having a problem with there broadband connection dropping off constantly with the new BT infinity broadband. I constantly have to switch my IPad off when I am on line and my laptop and wireless printer is also being affected by this. Can anyone suggest how I can correct this problem? Thanks in advance for any help. j

    If all of the connections are wireless it is probably an issue with that rather than the Infinity connection itself. Download Inssider 2 onto your laptop and check if another network is using the same channel as yours. 

  • Hp office jet 6700 (Mac)-wireless connection keeps failing...

    Hi-I am hoping that someone has a solution for this. We have an HP Officejet 6700 that has worked flawlessly till last week. The wireless signal keeps dropping. I think that is the issue because if I go into Setup on the printer itself and go to Network and start all over with finding my router, it works fine. For one print job. Then if I have something something else to print I have to go through that whole setup routine again. 
    If I just go to Print it says locating printer and then it says that the printer is not connected. What is going on?? Very frustrated. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the driver (I downloaded the driver from the HP website). That didn't fix it. I saw that there was a firmware update but couldn't install it even though I plugged my laptop into the printer with a USB cord. 
    Something is going on that I don't have a clue in how to fix it. I really appreciate any help. Thank you, Judy

    Hi mrstucci,
    I would to help you establish a more consistent connection between your Officejet 6700 printer and your Mac. Please use the following document to troubleshoot the issue; Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection.

  • Branch Office DC Demand Dial VPN connection keeps failing

    here is me issue
    Our Branch Office DC is connected to Main Office DC with a Demand Dial Connection in RRAS Everything is connected fine for a little bit then its like the connection just gives out, it stays connected but i cannot ping the branch office DC with the local
    IP from the Main Office or access any network shares on it. When this happens i have to disconnect the server at the remote office and wait for it to reconnect im currently baffled as there are no Error LOGS to help me along and there doesnt seem to be anything
    that would be causing the issue for now until i get some answers as to what is going on i opened a command prompt on the DC here at the main office and i typed "ping 10.141.70.25 -t100" to monitor the connection more or less and when i see it timeout
    i reconnect it, i also have the networking tab open in task manager to monitor the LAN and RAS (Dial-In) Interface  the LAN doesnt seem too active but the RAS Interface does its got a constant network utilization of 0.28% and the Demand Dial interface
    on the remote office DC has a Utilization of 0.38% (Server Just disconnected as i was typing this and the utilization on the VPN connections on both servers went through the roof) heres the troubleshooting i have tried so far
    1. Rebooted both office DC`s at the same time
    2. Rebooted the branch office DC alone (this helped a little because the connection is staying active longer without fail)
    3. looked through all RRAS configuration on both servers to see if theres any mistakes by any other administrators (None Were Found)
    4. Used wireshark to see if there was anything interfering or that would cause this to happen (Nothing found)
    5. manually connected to the server in multiple ways like accessing network shares and remote management via MMC and manually making the servers replicate to see if any of that was causing issues and it wasnt
    My thoughts: im starting to think it may be a switch or something causing the connection issue at the branch office because the main office has all new routers and switches and just recently got a 100.00MBPS connection but nothing was affected for a good
    month so im not thinking it is the new connection or anything at the main office if theres something im overlooking here please let me know if some ipconfig /all results are needed i can provide them

    hi
    I am with BT total broadband since Feb2011 every thing was fine up untill last month, now what i find is my connection dropping and i need to go and restart router some times to get connected back again, Is there any way i can get a stable connection Please help me to resolve this.My Postcode is HP13 6DY

    in order for the forum members to help please can you post the adsl stats from your router may need to 'show detail' to get all stats (if hub enter 192.168.1.254 in your browser and navigate to adsl or use a-z, if netgear enter 192.168.0.1) and run btspeedtester (MAC users may have problems) http://speedtester.bt.com or http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/9354/c/346,4740,5520 and post the results .
    are you connected directly to the NTE5 master or test socket or to somewhere else? Is the master the only phone socket in your home?
    Have you tried the quiet line test? - dial 17070 option 2 - should hear nothing - best done with a corded phone. if cordless phone you may hear a 'dull hum' which is normal

  • Vlan HSRP states keep failing over

    Hi
    We have 2 core 6500 switches with a trunk between them. There there are access layer switch stack each stack has 1 link to each core.
    Core 1--------------------------------trunk-----------------------------------Core2
         |                                                                                                  |
         |                                                                                                  |
    **********************Switch Stacks****************************************
    Lately I am having issues where hsrp states for different vlans keeps changing. Now this would be cause the active hsrp switch loses visibility of its neighbor on that vlan for a short period. HSRP timers are set to 1 sec hello, 3 sec dead. My spanning tree needs work done on so im believe it may be the issue as all values are currently defaults.
    So my question, the trunk between the cores only has a few vlans running over it. Can I solve this issue by allowing all vlans to run over that trunk so to ensure the hsrp core do not lose visibiity of each other, is that a good networking practice
    Thanks

    So my question, the trunk between the cores only has a few vlans running over it. Can I solve this issue by allowing all vlans to run over that trunk so to ensure the hsrp core do not lose visibiity of each other, is that a good networking practice
    So currently for a lot of the vlans you are not allowing them across the trunk link between the core switches. Is that correct ?
    If so it is a common design (** see below) to have an etherchannel trunk between the core/distro switches and have all vlans running across it if you are running HSRP for those vlans on the core switches.
    However please don't go and do that before you understand what the implications are.
    Looking at your schematic if you had a vlan on the 6500s and the switch stack and you are running HSRP for that vlan but the vlan was not allowed across the trunk between the cores what that means is both uplinks from the switch stack are forwarding because there is no loop.
    If you then allowed the vlan across the 6500 interconnect you then have a loop. So STP has to block one of the links. With this design it should block one of the uplinks from the switch stack providing your trunk between the 6500s has more bandwidth (which is why you use an etherchannel ).
    Because you are running HSRP you would not lose throughput from the switch stack to the core switches because it should always use the uplink to the HSRP active core switch but return traffic from the core switches can at the moment use either link to the switch stack. If STP blocks one of those links then you may well lose throughput back to the switch stack depending on how the rest of your network looks.
    ** As I say this is a common design practice but it is gradually being replaced because you can now run MEC (Multichassis Etherchannel) to the core/distro switches providing the switches support it.
    MEC would allow you to treat both uplinks from the switch stack to the cores as one logical link and so STP does not need to block any of the uplinks.
    MEC is supported on 6500 switches running VSS (which yours aren't by the sounds of it). VSS would also mean you didn't need to individually configure HSRP on each switch ie. you only configure one of the 6500s with HSRP and the configuration is "active" on both.
    So the general answer is yes, if you cannot run MEC, what you propose is a valid design but if you do it you could lose throughput and you would also need downtime because for every vlan you allowed across the trunk between the 6500s that wasn't already allowed there would be an STP recalculation.
    It may not therefore be what you really want to do.
    Edit - the above does not take into account the rest of your network topology ie. if you have multiple switch stacks with the same vlans on them you would be blocking on some of those links already due to the fact you would have loops with or without the vlans going across the trunk between the 6500s.

  • My broadband connection keeps droping

    It lasts about 3days that my connection to internet will keep droping during afternoon and evening, but it's still quite good at morning.
    Are there any line maintance in Swansea area? How long it will last?
    I think I'm paying loads of money suffering a bad service.
    I have checked user guide and maked sure that there is nothing wrong with my laptop.
    by the way, I can't make it success with the call by my mobile phone.
    Are there anything wrong with your call center service?

    Hi welcome to the forum
    Your post is not very clear do you mean your speed drops. In the afternoon and evening or you cannot connect at all or your connection is intermittent
    There are no known problems in your area
    Like wise the call centres are available 24/7 with no problems remember if you are using a mobile phone you leave the first zero of the number You could use a normal land line phone from your home phone line socket at no charge
    Can you please run the Bt speedtest speedtester.bt.com and post the full results back here and. Also your full hub stats to do that enter the following in to your browser address bar 192.168.1.254 then once past the password page navigate to adsl and post the full results from there back herethen someone will be able to help you further

  • Broadband Connection Keeps Dropping - ERROR_NO_CAR...

    Hi,
    I've been disconnected frequently (sometimes >10 times in 12 hours) when I look at the HH3 Event Log I can see a ERROR_NO_CARRIER for each break in the connection. This started on 9th December which was same day I got notification from BT that my line/exchange had been upgraded.
    I've carried out all the usual tests but have not made much progress. However today I was told that my IP profile is to be increased, the line is currently showing the following stats, can someone please let me know if increasing the IP profile will have a positive impact on a connection that is frequenting being lost with ERROr_NO_CARRIER:-

    welcome to the forum
    who told you that your profile will improve and that will give you a better speed.  that is not correct - you need to get your speed increased and that will give you and increased profile.  your profile is 88.2% of your connection speed so faster speed higher profile not the other way round.
    in order for the forum members to help please can you post the adsl stats from your router may need to 'show detail' to get all stats (if hub enter 192.168.1.254 in your browser and navigate to adsl or use a-z, if netgear enter 192.168.0.1) and run btspeedtester (MAC users may have problems) http://speedtester.bt.com or http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/935​4/c/346,4740,5520 and post the results .
    are you connected directly to the NTE5 master or test socket or to somewhere else? Is the master the only phone socket in your home?
    Have you tried the quiet line test? - dial 17070 option 2 - should hear nothing - best done with a corded phone. if cordless phone you may hear a 'dull hum' which is normal
    Someone may then be able to offer help/assistance/suggestions to your problem
