The phone is affected by the dropout like any other device. TPG has to handle this. You can check the coax cable from the wall socket to the Arris box and the ethernet cable from Arris to the router. Check they are secure and not stretched.   There's a small chance the VR1600 is faulty. Does it recover by itself or do you have to restart it? I have been using the tpg mobile app to test connection, and when it sees the fault, the button to lodge a fault becomes visible, which I then use.   Tpg say issue is resolved after about 24 hours. however the internet keeps dropping out.   It use to drop out every now and then, but it is getting progresively worse, to the point that it's becoming frustratingly difficult to get any meaningfull work done on the pc.   The modem recovers by it self after about 5 minutes.       ...

Another drop out and this is the log.   I have power cycled the modem, heaps, factory reset it. power cycled again and again. and some more. It just keeps dropping out constantly. The phone will drop out when talking as well.   1 2022-04-10 20:31:55 PPP Information ppp3 sent [LCP TermReq id=0x4 "Peer not responding"] 2 2022-04-10 20:31:54 VOIP Information Register to server address 172.26.0.98:5060 3 2022-04-10 20:31:54 VOIP Information Register to server address 172.26.0.98:5060 4 2022-04-10 20:31:54 VOIP Warning every IP of the domain has been tried, but we didn't find the correct one! 5 2022-04-10 20:31:52 PPP Information ppp3 sent [LCP TermReq id=0x3 "Peer not responding"] 6 2022-04-10 20:31:52 PPP Warning ppp3 LCP down 7 2022-04-10 20:31:52 PPP Error ppp3 LCP down 8 2022-04-10 20:31:52 PPP Error ppp3 Peer not responding ...
