My connect has continously cut out for the last 2 or more months. I've contacted NBN they tell me to contact you. Can you please help with this issue!?
Below is a copy of the response NBN Co. sent me to my complaint:

Hi @Nadarizk85 

 

I have checked your NBN-HFC 100/40 service on our nbn portals and all tests are passing.

Speed is good on your modem at 72mbps and has been up for 8hrs.

 

There are different types of dropouts that you may experience:
1. Network dropouts, this dropout is caused by a line fault on TPG or NBN's network. Affecting all device(s) LAN/Wireless connected to the modem/router this may require a real-time test and investigation by our Technicians and Engineers.
2. Wireless dropouts, this issue only affects the device(s) connected via Wi-Fi which can easily be fix by doing adjustment to the modem/router's settings.
3. Dropouts caused by ongoing outage in your area.
In the event that you experience dropouts via Wireless/Wi-Fi connection, we recommend having a read on the following articles:
• Troubleshooting a Slow Internet Connection https://community.tpg.com.au/t5/Featured-Articles/Slow-speed-issue/ba-p/1197

Hi David,


Thank you for your response albeit I was hoping it would be more helpful...


You check yesterday showed that i had dropped out up until the point you had checked, what about the rest of the day/evening? I'm sure if you checj you'll note multiple drop outs!


This morning alone I've had my connection drop out 3 times (including right now as I type this email). Once at approx 8:30am, 10:30 and and 11:15 am (ongoing).


Please do send me anymore useless troubleshooting help manuals and fix my connection!!
