Hi,My internet has suddenly started to disconnect itself and often does not reconnect automatically. I have not changed anything on my side. I have called the helpline and they said something about the load on my line. We removed the splitter box meant for the telephone as I dont have one. But I still have disconnects. there should be a note on the system regarding what to do to my line, left by the operator I spoke to.thx

Hi Dan,

I just checked your account: Everything seems to be fine - your internet connection is set to 16 Mbit/s. Did you already try to reset your modem? Which LEDs on your modem are flashing, when the connection to the internet is lost?

Regards,
Christian
Hi Christian,I have reset my modem many times. Its the red @ led that flashes, then remains red. If I am lucky the modem reconnects automatically, but most times it have to reboot it to get my connection back. My disconnects happen at diffrent times, there is no set patern. Sometimes I will be playing online games, other times I will just be browsing the web. When I spoke to a operator on the phone, he said he left a note on the system for the next operator to read what the problem is, if my line still kept dropping. It had something todo with the 80% threshold on my line, and i had a 82% load. I hope this means something to you.On a side note: I should only have 8Mbit/s line. I did apply for gigaspeed at my previous house, but when we moved to my current address, I was told gigaspeed 16 not available.regardsDan

Hi Dan,

82 % is only slightly too high for the load. However there are fluctuations in the measurements. The blinking @ LED on your modem means that it loses synchronization (i.e. the connection to the exchange). In other words: the bandwidth of 8 Mbit is too high for your line.

To ensure a stable connection I adapted the bandwidth on your line to the next highest feasible line profile, which is (approx.) 6 Mbit.

Kind regards

Thomas
Thx Thomas,I will see how it goes over the next few days and let you know if this has solved the problem.
Hi,So my line seems more stable, but rather slow. So I did the A1 speedtest:
 
 Die Geschwindigkeit Ihrer Internetverbindung beträgt derzeit Download2.4 mbps
Upload0.5 mbps

  
This is way slower than it should be right?

Hi Dan,

I had a look at your account again: Currently, you have 1 A1 Mediabox installed - did you carry out the test while the A1 Mediabox was switched on and you were watching TV? An active Mediabox consumes approximately 4 Mbit/s.

Carry out the Speedtest again, while your Mediabox is switched off - you should get better results then.

Looking forward to your answer,
Christian
Hi,I was under the impression that only 2.2Mbit was allocated for the TV stream. But you are correct, with the Media box off:
Download5.6 mbps
Upload0.5 mbps
Thanks
