Drop out at the same time every evening

From what I see you can run 'Wine' on macOS which will allow you to run Windows applications. https://www.winehq.org/ 

I have used wine on ubuntu based systems  for routerstats with success, not having a macOS based system I have not been able to try.

Oracle Virtual Box is free to use, so you could use that with a Ubuntu based OS (something like Mint) and Wine.

Yes, I could give VirtualBox a go for sure, I have dabbled with that a few times over the years. Why would I need to Wine it? Wouldn't router stats work in Mint, as there is a Linux version there?

The executable is RouterStatsHub5A.exe

EDIT: you could use Zorin OS that's preloaded with wine.

My apologies, I hadn’t spotted that bit

The master socket is what I’d call a standard faceplate. Just a single telephone socket.

@Wildroverandy could you post a picture of it please ? it may still have a removable faceplate and if that's the case it may be useful to eleimate a faceplate issue by using the test socket

It surely couldn’t have been this daft could it? It wasn’t the Faceplate, but on the 24th I swapped the filter for the one that came with the router, and I haven’t seen a dropout since then (obviously the filter swap trigged a log event (identical to the previous ones).

So the last actual dropout logged was the 22nd.

Thanks to all for their contributions.

cheers

Hi Guys,

Just thought I'd update on this one. I've just checked the logs in the router (Hub Two now), and the last PPP: 'Send Termination' request that I can see was back in January, with a handful occurring before that. Since then there are none, and I've not noticed any of the evening dropouts either.

Is it possible there might have been an exchange fault (or similar), that's just happened to be fixed at some point? (Nothing else here has changed here). Not sure it was the filter, as it did happen a few times after replacing it.

Cheers.

Andy

Andy,

There are so many variables and no clear smoking gun.  Your previous post noted a marked improvement following replacing the filter.  That being variable could have given to who knows what issues.
