NBN HFC drops out regularly

[kcurnow]

My NBN connection keeps dropping out. When I check the modem it is showing no internet connection and I need to restart the NBN hfc connection box. Once this is restarted the internet connection works again. This happens 2 or 3 times each day. Could someone please look at what is going on.

Just letting you know this now seems to be happening again with dropouts pretty much every day.

Hi @kcurnow,

There are different caused 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 did an article that you may find helpful see links below.
