Constant dropouts HFC - ppp3 LCP down Error

I got connected to the NBN last week (love the speed difference compared to ADSL2+) but I am having an issue where the connection seems to drop out at random periods of time. All the right lights on the Archer 1600 modem (green power and internet and LAN/WIFI) and the NBN box (4 green lights) seem to indicate everything is working but the LAN connections get disconnected and connection through the net via Wifi ceases to work. 

 

Sometimes it reboots by itself and sometimes it doesn't. Sample log as follows:

Hi @masoj3k,

 

Welcome to TPG Community!

 

We were able to locate your account using your community details and have run some test remotely. We weren't able to detect any fault within the NBN network and the NTD box shows that it's been stable for almost 5 days now.

 

It is possible that the modem is dropping the connection, but it seems stable as of the moment. Are you experiencing the dropouts at a specific time or random?

 

In case it happens again, try to reset the modem by pressing the reset button on the back of it for 30 secs. Give it a few minutes and it should reconnect to the NBN server automatically.

 

If the dropouts still occur after that, please let us know and will check it further.

 

Kind regards,

BasilDV
