NBN Down regularly

[gusvd]

Since July this year my NBN connection goes down for about an hour each day. I have rang technical support numerously and they go through their set routine of reboot and checking etc. and after a while it comes back up. I found that not ringing them is just as good as it comes back up in about the same time by it self.

Can what ever is causing this routine downtime be fixed? As I said it has only started happening since about July. I live in the Port Adelaide area.

I sent my userid and address in a private message. I will keep monitoring to see if my dropouts improve.

Hi @gusvd,

Thanks for sending me your details. I was able to ran an initial test and it shows no line fault affecting the service, however, I noticed that there has been a multiple attempts on the modem/router connection to our network. We'd like to arrange one of our Technicians for further investigation and real-time tests, please confirm your best contact number and preferred time.

I sent you my mobile and availability via private message. Also I noticed that my NBN was down again for some time on Sunday even though I wasnt using it at the time.

Thanks for your PM, @gusvd. We have escalated the issue to our Engineering Team and one of our case engineers will contact you to discuss the progression of the case.

If there's a need for us to send a technician, you will be advised through SMS or phone call. Kindly await further updates within the day.

Still seems to happen every day or sometimes every second day down for about 30 to 60 minutes.

Hi @gusvd,

As per checking, your service is currently affected by an unplanned NBN network outage and you may check the status here: https://www.nbnco.com.au/support/network-status

There is no estimated time of restoration yet, but NBN technicians will do their best to rectify this as soon as possible.

We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience.

This sounds exactly like an issue I've been having.

For a couple of months now, daily (on occassion 2-3 times per day) I just lose NBN and it can be out for 5 minutes or an hour (to be fair, it's usually shorter rather than longer).

But it's not at set times and there's no warning when it will go or when it will come back up.

Should I make an indepdent thread about this?*

*I did call over the weekend to discuss, but we ended up spending an hour trying to improve wifi connectivity - which I don't believe was ever the issue and hasn't solved the dropout problem anyway.

If I sound a bit miffed, it's because I have to work from home in the current environment and this makes it difficult.
