Re: Multiple disconnects every day

Only suggestion I can make in that case is - ask them to reply by email, if they can.

I tried replying to their original email last week but no response. I tried DMing their twitter handle yesterday but no response either.

At this stage I’m starting to wonder whether a switch to newly laid Swish Fibre FTTP is in order, and I’ve been a PlusNet customer for almost 18 years!

Re: Multiple disconnects every day

I understand your frustration, but can't make any more suggestions at the moment. Staff response on here is close to non-existent, as they claim they are 'very busy', although doing what I don't know.

 

EDIT: try raising a fault via https://faults.plus.net

Re: Multiple disconnects every day

Thought I’d come back on this. Fault was raised and we had an engineer visit. He could see there was packet loss and after checking a few things in the house he then set off to check joins in the cable between our house and the cabinet. Anyway to cut a long story short they reckoned it was better and closed the fault despite the fact we were still getting regular disconnects.

Eventually I noticed things were a lot more stable, and checking my router logs I could see we now had a 6db downstream noise margin and slightly lower speed. In fact I think it stayed up for about a month. Yay! Unfortunately I had to reboot it a week or two back and now it’s back at 3db and flakey. E.g. Saturday just gone I see 5 drops.

So is there anything I can do to request a permanent 6db noise margin?
