Constant small drop outs

Hi Support,

I have been having this issue for almost a year, but hasn't caused too much of a hassle until now and would like to see if I can get it fixed.

Every few minutes I lose internet connection for a second or two. Its consistent and repeated all day and every day.

Unsure what details you need me to provide.

Thanks

Nick

Hey @blitzkriyg,

 

Welcome to the community and thanks for raising this to us. 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
