NBN FTTN connection keeps dropping out, phone line 1 not connected

Hello,

I'm having a reccuring problem with my NBN dropping out. It seems this time that the phone line 1 isn't working. Is this a service provider or line issue, or an issue on my end? This has happened every few weeks. I haven't had interenet for about 4 days now I believe. I have used the reset button on my modem, along with resetting it numerous times before that and turning both my phone and the modem off at the wall before resetting after a few minutes. The phone line 1 light is turned off, the DSL light is flashing intermitently.

Thanks,
Chelsea.

Hi @cmoss91 

 

Our Engineers was trying to call you to no avail.

 

Are you able to send a PM with your preferred time and best mobile number to be contacted? The only number that we have on the account is your home phone number which is unreachable.

Hi @Charliexwc

 

There are different types of speed issues that you may experience:

 

1. Speed issues 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 Speed issue 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. Speed issues caused by ongoing outage in your area. 

 

I've managed to run remote test on your connection and have detected that your session is working for more than a month now which means the line is stable. 

 

It's possible that the trouble you may be having could be WIFI-related (signal interference, distance, weak signal) if you're using a WIFI connection only. 

 

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

 

If the issue persists, let us know of your most convenient time to receive a call so we can have our Technical Team to assist you further.
