Sky LLU keeps dropping the connection

I have noticed that for the last few weeks, the connection uptime on my line seems to struggle to make it over 24 hours, even though my router up time is 176 days.

Line speed seems stable (and good), and I don't hear any crackling on the line, etc. I know that Weymouth is meant to be underoing a fibre roll out, so maybe it is being caused by that, but certainly The Kelly Cowboys have been no where need my local cabs (new or old) in the last few months.

Last reconnect was at about 4.00am (I was fast asleep at that point).

Any ideas?

Thanks,

For 29dB attenuation you are getting a very good sync speed

So if the 6dB margin is stable between day and night, then it may just be very large local noise bursts i.e. not much you can do.

the noise margin seems to be pretty consistent.... so I'll not worry about it too much in that case.

Thanks. Hopefully they sort out my local cab soon, and I can upgrade to fibre (date keeps getting pushed away)

Interesting that your line seems to set on fastpath rather than interleaving. How have you managed to achieve that?

When I've asked Sky support, the best they can offer is "gaming profile" with 8ms(?) interleaving:
