Regular Disconnections FTTN NBN

[Allisonspiteri]

Hi,

Ben is going to be late so I will message you my number instead

[Erika]

Hi @Allisonspiteri, 

Thanks for updating us. 

I've notified the assigned technician for your contact number. 

Let me should you need further assistance.

Hi Erika,

From what you have told me, I can only gather that:

• regardless of the history of problems on this service
• regardless of the fact that the exact same issue has persisted with 2 separate devices, both of which were brand new out of box within the past 6 to 7 months

We are being put on the same merry-go-round as we were previously.

This reminds me of a quote by Albert Einstein:

"The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result."

How many times are we going to repeat this same diagnostic step before we conclude that we need to look elsewhere for the problem?

So, after the support call we received last week where my partner was given instructions to reset the modem software. As suspected, we have continued to get regular disconnects. 15 times since the 23rd Including 9 today.

As I write this, the modem has only just reconnected again at a much slower rate (10mbps), and the 'Downstream SNR (dB)' statistic is very unstable, going up and down, which is the same as I have seen in the past. This would suggest either a problem with our line or in the street cabinet.

I need this fault to be properly investigated and diagnosed.
