Home Hub 3 Dropping Skype Connection

I have just replaced my HH 2 for the HH 3 and find that when connected to Skype the connection is lost after aprox 10 mins of usage and my PC locks up and I have to reset my PC to obtain connection again.
I am connected to the HH 3 by the Ethernet cable.
I had no problems using Skype with my HH 2.
Have temporarily turned off the Auto chan selection to see if this may improve and hold Skype conectivty.
Software Version: 4.7.5.1.83.8.57.1.3 Type A.
Any advise very welcome.

as connection time only 2min there is little to see apart from a good connection with noise margin at the normal of 6db. stats are more help if you Can post with longer connection time - longer the better
have you tried replacing the filter as they don't last forever
have you noticed if your connection drops coincide with making/receiving phone calls

Home Hub keep dropping the connection

Hi, getting rather fed up with this now, i have a HH2 and phoned BT and spoke to someone in India he tested what he could and decided to send me another Home Hub 2.0.
In the mean time i changed all the filters on the sky tv and the land line socket, got new HH and fitted it, went to change setting and password and it dropped out, so i did this again and again and again and well you get the idea, same old problem different day, i do downloads and leave the computer on of a night and in the morning i have no connection, not just once but all the time, during the day at anytime i get drop outs frequently and its really gets on my nerves resetting the poxy hub
Any ideas?.....thanks
Daf

Hi, i ran the test and its asking me this
Go to the start menu, click Settings, Control Panel and the Network Connections folder.
Select the Connection that you use to connect to your ISP.
Change the Username to: speedtest@speedtest_domain and blank the Password.
Set this connection as your default and click Ok.
Double click the connection and wait for the message "Connected".
Once this has successfully Connected, click the button below:
I havent got a clue what its on about and i tried, since i posted i have had to reboot the hub 3 times today, not good at all, since i came from a ISP that was better than what im getting and cheaper!
I am on a wireless Belkin N
Im sorry i cant do what the computer is asking as i dont know how, if you can bare with me and list in laymens turns i might be able to do it?
Thanks for your time, shame BT cant come round and sort the mess out ...pigs may fly

HOME HUB 5 KEEPS LOSING CONNECTION

Upgraded to Infinity 2 a couple of weeks ago,had standard BT Broadband for a couple of years with no issues.The new home hub drops out and re-connects 3 or 4 times a day.Very inconvenient when i'm trying to watch films etc on Amazon Fire TV(which works via broadband).
Upgrading was supposed to be an improvemnt but doesn't seem that way at the moment,i've seen the posts about the firmware upgrade but it doesn't seem to have cured my issue.

Home Hub 4 dropping connection

Hello - I hope someone can help
I have had repeated problems with broadband over several months - even changing supplier to BT - no difference. I have renewed wiring, changed telephone sets, filters - the lot and are now using the BT Home Hub 4. This has now been connected to the test socket for a couple of weeks now and it is still dropping connection on a regular basis. I reported a fault with a noisy line a couple of weeks ago and it seemed to briefly resolve itself.
I have tried to log an issue with BT but the line test shows no fault. The broadband speed test is about right for our location too.
At the end of my tether now and looking for any more help before biting the bullet and risking a £130 bill for an engineer to check the line. I have a hunch it is the main BT socket itself. Any ideas ?
Cheers
Jim

Hi Welcome to the community forums
Have you tried the quiet line test dial 17070 option 2 if any noise is heard this needs reporting to BT Faults on 151 with no mention of broadband in the call once resolved your broaband will start to improve

Bt infinity - home hub 5 - dropping connection

Ok guys, might be a difficult one for you here.
I have had infinity installed since October. I have always suffered from drop outs in my connection.
What happens is that the big blue light on the hh will turn orange for maybe 5 seconds or so and then go back to blue. But it's long enough to kick me out of an online game for example.
Router logs show something for the disconnection, but no info really.
I have had 3 home hubs, brand new internal wiring in my house, and 4 or 5 engineers out to check things out, as the line was also a lot slower than initially expected.
I have had another engineer out yesterday and today, who has changed my entire line back to the green box. But it has just disconnected on my again whilst playing titanfall.
Does anybody here have any ideas? Engineers are at a loss, BT India support are clueless. I'm out of ideas
Cheers guys

The only thing that makes me wonder, is that I am not seeing these VDSL up and down resyncs. And most people have been seeing these issues since late January, mine go back to October.

I do have a OR modem around, unused, that I managed to talk one of the engineers in to giving me, as plan was to use my AirPort Extreme, but I didn't want to start using that until the connection was fixed, as first thing bt support would say is that it's my router causing the fault.
I could try the OR modem, just not sure if this is my problem or not. Anybody know anything from the logs I have posted? Or will any other logs help out?

Home Hub 3 and 4 Connections Limit ?

Hi All i am very much hoping there is someone expert on issues such as number of connections allowed and home hub interconnecting.
First things first. I had a home hub 3 and it kept on dropping the signal. it went on for several months and many calls to Bangladesh. Very often the problem was fixed and all reunning perfect ...... for a few days sometimes even a week or so. Then it was back to This page cannot be displayed or 'No Internet' in the wifi connection window.
At the beginning the hub would show fault ie the red light would start to flash. I also had a terible phone line with a lot of crackle. One of the 'remote fixes' seemed to cure this and from then on the blue light was always on and for a while the signal remained ok. then it bagan to drop intermittently.
i also have a connection to a remote part of the garden and run a 40 meter Cat 5 cable from a port on the new homehub4 up to the homehub 3 at the other end. When i connect this, the home hub3 in the garden receives Internet no porblem but i loose it at the main hub. no faults are reported and the signal is said to be excellent and 'Internet Access ' is usually displayed.
i can often get the first page but then clicking any links gives a page with cannot connect to this page please check the name etc. if i unplug the lead going down the garden to the homehub3 I get ful connection back.
I think there is more than one problem but for now i just want to fix this bandwidth sharing issue. Surely i should not loose connection as soon as i connect to a slave hub down the garden? it does come and go after then and i will receive the odd batch of email but it is disconnected 80% of the time.
Anyone any idea what sort of a problem this is? if it is bandwidth, can i set a limit on how much will go the the slave homehub3? or can i set priority to the homehub4? or even to a specific IP address ie my laptop?
both hubs use dhcp so i did wonder if there was conflict of IP addresses but i dont see how this can be because my connection comes and goes whereas theremote homehub3 stays perfect connection for skype etc.
Another very interesting aspect was that when i would drop out on the new hub, i could connect to BT WiFi with Fon and got a connection no problem. Yet that connection must be supplied by my homehub4 so how can it supply me through wifi with fon no problem but not a direct wifi connection when i an literally 2 feet from the router?
that element has now vanished because the Bangladesh team finally decided it was the new router and sent an engineer to test it. he concluded it was the router and changed it for one he had with him butthis one does not give any signal for btwifi with fon so I am scr___d !
absolutely anything appreciated. I was an IT professional for many years so dont be shy to use technical terms.
Thanks in advance
Solved!

Home Hub 3: ethernet & wireless connections from i...

I have a perplexing problem whereby the functionality I get from my Home Hub 3 is different depending on whether my brand new iMac computer running MacOS 10.7.2 is connected wired (i.e. using ethernet) or via wireless.
The functionality difference has shown itself to me in the two scenarios below. It's a problem to me because the problems occur when the iMac is connected via ethernet and I want to use ethernet to connect my iMac. If the wireless connection to the iMac was as reliable as everything else on my network (mac laptops also running 10.7.2, windows 7 laptops, iphones, ipads etc) I would be content to use wireless. However, the iMac frequently drops the signal requiring a wireless on/off to get it back. I'm tending to hold the iMac responsible for this and await an Apple fix, although having changed the security setting on the Home Hub 3 to WPA2 only and set the channel to channel 4, the wireless dropouts are much less frequent, without these changes it drops the signal every few minutes. Any input on this would be gratefully received.
I want wired for connection reliability (and speed), but I have a two situations where I get more functionality out of my network if the iMac is connected via wireless. A classic case of being caught between two stools.
Scenario 1
I have a WD MyBook Live NAS drive attached to the Home Hob 3 via ethernet with the intention of using it as a Time Machine backup disc for the iMac and to be a shared drive for our macbook and windows laptops. All seems fine at first with the iMac connected via ethernet, the browser can see the NAS drive and set it up etc, but Time Machine will only see the WD MyBook Live if wireless is switched on.
Scenario 2
I have an HP 5510 wireless printer and set it up and HP software installed on the iMac. With the iMac connected to the Home Hub 3 via ethernet printing is fine, however, scanning doesn't work, the scanner and iMac cant see each other. With wireless scanning is fine as well as printing.
I haven't wanted to mess with it all any more, Ive spent hours going through the HP software, the WD software, the router as well as the network preferences on the iMac. It's not making make sense. Anybody who knows what's going on here would be a genius in my book!

Hi mja, Apologies but I'm not the expert you're looking for, but a couple of my experiences may be of interest. I've got a WD my book running as a networked back up drive. A while back there was an update for a "USB" connected hard drive (which mine is definitely not) - this confused my PC -- wouldn't let it close down amongst many other symptoms --with great difficuly managed to disable the driver and sanity was restored. The other problem involved a print server that has a static IP address -------- my HH3 sometimes gives that IP address to other items on my network --------- this stops the printer working. Apologies if this post is not formatted correctly, I'm using an iPad --- not by choice,, All the best Michael

HELP! BT Home Hub won't stay connected

Hi, was wondering if anyone here could possibly help, please, particularly with interpretation of ADSL Line stats/errors?
Trying to cut a v.v. long story short, been using BT Broadband with original BT Home Hub (1.0/1.5?) for approx. 6-7 years with recent average speed of just over 6Mb. No problems at all, apart from v. occasional connection drops, and minor, brief drops in speed.
As of middle of May frequent connection drops. Numerous contacts with BT, connected Home Hub to Master socket, new ADSL filters, new BT Home Hub (2.0A), etc. TWO visits from engineers, first fixed a “very minor” fault on line caused by “old connection” in junction box outside neighbours house, but told line now fine, which 2nd engineer confirmed when he came to install new HH version 3 last Wednesday. But since this problem started (back in middle of May) have hardly ever gone more than about 10 – 15 hours without a loss of connection (nearly got to 72 hours ONCE!).
At times there can be 3 or 4 dropouts in 20 – 30 minutes, other times just a single dropout. When it is connected speed is never really an issue, still on average just over 6Mb. Doesn’t seem to be any particular times of day, although obviously we tend to notice more during late afternoon/evenings when more of us are connected.
Ran out of patience ages ago, now running out of ideas, but if anyone has got any, would be much appreciated, especially an interpretation of ASDL stats and errors. Here are the current stats, (NB Currently connected to Master (only) socket via new face-plate with built-in filter installed by 1st engineer).

Home Hub 3 WiFi - poor connection even when 2 metr...

My Home Hub 3's WiFi has always been **bleep** but lately it seems to be getting worse. Most of my devices are connected via Ethernet and are fine but my WiFi devices suffer problems: poor speeds, high/fluctuating pings, web pages slow to load.
Laptop (WiFi):
Speed test = 31 ms ping, 4.6 Mbps down, 7.0 Mbps up Google.co.uk ping = 27 ms, 48 ms, 301 ms, 14 ms
Server (Ethernet):
Speed test = 10 ms ping, 64.4 Mbps down, 16.3 Mbps up Google.co.uk ping = 8 ms, 8 ms, 8 ms, 8 ms
My server is actually busy doing networking stuff during this, yet has an excellent connection. The laptop's connection is pitiful, with pings all over the place (presumably due to constantly dropping packets). I actually managed to fix this last night by switching from 801.11b/g to 801.11b/g/n on the Home Hub but that didn't last since I'm having the same issues today. I've tried choosing automatic WiFi channel and switching manually to the least busy channel (1/6/11), and I've tried changing from 20 Mhz to 40 Mhz. Neither has any effect. I've also tried rebooting the router, which doesn't help.
I know it's a problem with the Home Hub since it happens with both of my phones also. Plus it occasionally seems to work fine. Is it just dying? I haven't ever moved it from its current position, which is in the centre of my flat.

up to you but using any of the other available channels does help in the majority of cases

Home hub keeps disconnecting and connecting to BTW...

This only appears to be happeneing on my windows 7 desktop computer. None of my other deviices have a problem. However with the desktop every so often the connection will be dropped from BTHub3 and it will instead try to connect to BTWiFi. I have no idea why. Can anyone please help.

Home Hub 3. Constant connectivity loss. Event log ...

Trying to get any kind of service out of my BT Infinity provision nowadays is like trying to arrange a tsunami in a desert.
Time after time after time after time, the Internet is working normally but then a page refuses to refresh and attempts to open another website result only in 'page not found' even though the Internet-connection icon is glowing steadily in the tray, and when I ask Windows to check on things, it reports that no problems have been found and the connection is working normally.
Except, of course, it isn't. I am not a technical expert and therefore haven't much of a clue where to start with this. My Vista OS runs with Panda Cloud AV and Malwarebytes PRO and Windows Firewall, all three of which have always played nicely. Prior to switching to BT Infinity, I had 'ordinary' BT broadband via a Netgear wireless router. The service was trouble-free.
This morning, I decided to delve into BT Home Hub Manager to re-set to factory default. That in itself took some doing because clicking on the Firefox bookmark got me nowhere at all: I had to sit here and wait for 10 minutes before the Hub page suddenly appeared as if out of nowhere.
I found in the event logs a seemingly unending chain of firewall related reports. Rather than read 'em all, I just hit re-set and whoa-hey, after a 5 or 6 minute wait, everything was fine and dandy again. . .
Until, 20 minutes later, it wasn't. Despite the re-set, Internet connectivity was shot to pieces. I'm on Amazon UK and click to open a new page in a new tab: Page Not Found. On the BBC News website, click on a link to open in a new tab: Page Not Found. Reload any of those exisdting, open pages and the reload circle just spins and spins until. . . Page Not Found.
Unfortunately, I can't make head nor tail of the log reports in the Firewall section, but typically they read:
IN: BLOCK [16] Remote administration
BLOCKED 1 more packet [because of Remote Administration]
IN: BLOCK [9] Packet invalid in connection
BLOCKED 4 more packets (because of Packet invalid in connection)
IN: BLOCK [9] Packet invalid in connection
BLOCKED 20 more packets (because of Packet invalid in connection)
BLOCKED 40 more packets (becuase of Packet invalid in connection)
And so it goes on. . . and on. It's not even clear to me if the Home Hub is doing the blocking anyway, but if it is, then I can't begin to figure out why websites like Amazon UK, BBC News, Speedtest and even Google Maps should be BLOCKED.
Help appreciated. . . always assuming, this post actually gets through -- I've no idea if this page has gone down or not, because though it's on-screen, that no longer means anything at all.

Thanks, Ray. Just managed to get back on here, there's been virtually no connectivity at all. One odd thing has been that the Home Hub Manager has opened OK. But it is no longer in agreement with the computer about whether or not connectivity exists. For example:
1) Click on disconnect in HH Manager, and it reports that the task has been achieved and the button changes to 'connect'.
But no disconnection has occurred. The Internet icon is still in the tray in its 'connected' state. And it's possible to go on the Net and briefly open up a website that isn't in the FF cache. But then everything fails again. Alternatively:
2) Click 'disconnect' in the tray control and the icon changes shows a bid red x. But the HH Manager doesn't agree. It continues to report that the computer is connected to the Internet.
I'm baffled and wearied. I'll have to relocate the Infinity set-up from downstairs to where this computer is; I'm assuming, I leave the modem in place (the new white flat thing the engineer brought when he installed Infinity)and just disconnect the black HH3 and brin g it upstairs and plug it into the PC?
Thanks for your help, much appreciated.

BT Home Hub 5 does not connect to internet - red f...

Hello,
We recently switched from BT broadband to BT Infinity 2, on Thursday the 11th to be exact, but our Hub 5 cannot connect to the internet.
The story goes as this:
- The 11th was the last day of our broadband and the day of activation of BT Infinity
- The engineer came at one to set everything up at 1pm
- When he finished our laptops connected to the Hub but the speed was very slow. We told the engineer and he said that it is indeed extremely slow for Infinity (6,4Mb) and although some customers do report slower speeds not as slow as that.
- Late in the afternoon we lost connection completely and a red flashing light was on
- At 9.30pm I received a text saying out BT Infinity is now live
- Red flashing light has been on since then. I turned it off and on again, reset it, restored it to the original settings. Once it goes on, the green light flashes, then the blue light comes on for 15 seconds, and then the red light starts flashing. The red 'b' comes on from time to time too.
- Last night I went to my Hub page and checked the Information page. The information that looked troubling is:
1. Product name:             BT Home Hub
2. Serial number:              +068343+NQ43237799
3. Firmware version:       Software version 4.7.5.1.83.8.173.1.6 (Type A) Last updated Unknown
4. Board version:              BT Hub 5A
5. ADSL uptime:                0 days, 00:54:54
6. Bandwidth:    1044 / 7434
7. Data sent/received:   0.0 MB / 0.0 MB
- It does not look like an infnity connection. I checked the hub again, tested the line etc. I even connected my old Hub 4 which is not working. It actually does the same thing my BT Hub 5 does, green first, blue for 15 seconds and the red flashing light.
- I called BT today. I told them everything I noticed it. All they said, it looks fine from our end, the internet was activated, but yes we can see there is a problem. We will send an engineer.
From what I can see the only reason we had internet on Thursday was because our broadband was still live. That will explain the really slow speed. Once we switched to Infinity no connection. The Hub page shows a very limited bandwith and ADSL...? Shouldn't ADSL actually be VDSL?
Can anyone please help? The engineer is coming, but I have very little faith that the matter will be resolved. Especially after the first one said everything looked ok, but call BT for the slow speed. And when I called BT it felt like someone was just reading a script.
Would the problem be our wiring? Or would BT not have switched something on?
Thank you
Evi

can you enter your phone number and post results remember to delete number https://www.btwholesale.com/includes/adsl/main.html
you would be betetr waiting on engineer visit and see it he can fix your connection and if not then post back and maybe mods will help

Hub 3 dropping wifi connection peripherals

Hi
First post here as never had any problems with Hub3, however, recently I'm losing the wifi connection to printer/airport express/other macs. they are shown as connected to the hub but my laptop is not connected to them. If I restart the router everything reverts to being OK.

Hub 3 dropping wifi. Problem solved so far.
I suddenly realised that I had swapped my iphone charger (which was sited very close to the router) with the wifes as she needed a longer cable, mine was the apple charger but got replaced with one of the cheap sort you can buy in the local shop. So I swapped it back and so far (5 days later) no loss of wifi. Bear in mind I was rebooting nearly every day.
As an aside, I have re-newed my BT broadband contract today and asked about a new router with my new contract. They offered me a HH4 for £35 + postage at £6.95 or a new HH4 FREE if I took the new contract without any discount for a year. Full price was £18, I'm on a discount at £13.85 rate for a year. This is not infinity. (not available as yet).
I asked if I could buy a HH4 at a later date for £35 + postage if my problems return. They said yes at anytime during the contract.

I am unable to set up my new Time Capsule with my BT Home Hub - every time i connect the ethernet cable from Wan port to Home Hub, the internet signal drops

Hi there -
I've just purchased a new Time Capsule, and would like to set up a small home network with my Laptop, iMac and wireless printer. I'm following the first steps, but as soon as I connect an ethernet cable between the WAN port of the TC and the ethernet port of the HH, my BT internet connection drops out and I have to restart the HH. Upon which point it drops out again. The airport utility can see my TC, and gets as far as me typing in the new network name and setting up a password, but then it can't quite get through to the next stage. All the time it's just flashing amber.
Please help!

Setup the TC in bridge mode before you cannot it to the HH.
Simply do the setup fully in isolation. And do it by ethernet.
Setup wireless to create a wireless network.
You can use either same SSID =Wireless name as the HH .. same security same password.
Or use a different name and setup.. totally up to you.
Update the TC and then plug it into the HH by ethernet.
