Huawei hg658 cable error

[Cam1]

Noticed FTTN speeds being slow yesterday & occasional drop out. Come home today to no phone or internet & “Cable error[8180]” when going into the modem management page.
Do I need to sit on my mobile or can TPG see an error from their end?

And suddenly after almost 4 hours down, it’s back & at a decent speed.
Did a NBN hamster kick a plug out somewhere?

Hi @Cam1,

Thanks for sending us your details, I was able to locate the account and confirm a possible line fault affecting the service. Please confirm your best contact number and preferred time.

We'll raise this to our Engineering Team for investigation and assessment, updates will be provided via SMS or Phone call when it becomes available.

Thanks - I got the SMS but have replied with a preferred alternate day, though I have other options that would suit if the tech is available.

Do “possible line faults” often rectify themselves?
Just got this message:
“TPG: ######## : Our monitoring shows the service quality has now improved and up to standard. Ticket has now been closed…”

Hi @Cam1

We've checked the updates from NBN Co and it shows that they weren't able to detect any issue within the network, which is why the case was closed.

The connection shows that it's been stable. Please observe it and let us know if you need further assistance.
