Internet connection continually drops out randomly

Has been happening for over a week now, maybe two. It will disconnect, then after a while reconnect, maybe be stable for an hour or two, then repeat it. Impossible to work from home like this.

Hi @philz ,

 

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

• Easy Steps to Improve Wi-Fi Connection In Your Home

• Wireless Channel on your modem - what is it and why should I change it

TPG attended to my request and it was fixed for a day, but now has begun dropping out again.

A new router was sent out, but disconnects are still happening.
