Past 3 hours have been better than before, no disconnections so far.

Just as you had no discons in previous 13 hrs. stats:

Loss of Signal Defect 0 0

Perhaps the discons you did experience are entirely down to the game servers you are using? So no fault of the Brightbox or EE's connection.

Once again though, as soon as my partner is home and we both try to use anything the house of cards falls flat. I also read for one man he had to reset his router every 2-3 hours to avoid constant disconnection to play ESO. Since I've not had issues at LAN parties I'd say it's not the game's fault they cant handle 2 from the same place but instead either the router, the line or the provider's fault. I don't doubt I don't lose signal, but rather it can't be deciphered that X data goes to X computer while Y data goes to Y computer or that the router itself is simply overwhelmed by 2 (!!) computers requiring traffic at the same time, an issue that netalyzr thinks there is as well, and such that data is neither received or transmitted - which leads lost packets, of which the WinMTR program believes I get 15-40% of between the computer and the router.

Once again, after the returning issues I'm getting this:

Broadband Type: ADSL
Broadband State: Connected
Internet State: Connected
Time Connected: 05:27:59
Downstream Rate: 10583kbps
Upstream Rate: 1227kbps

Defect/Failure Indication

Noise Margin 6.8 dB 12.3 dB
Line Attenuation 12.8 dB 30.5 dB
Indicator Name Near End Indicator Far End Indicator

Fast Path CRC Error 341 10
Interleaved Path CRC Error NA NA
Loss of Signal Defect 0 0
Fast Path HEC Error STR 1016 7
Interleaved Path HEC Error NA NA

Whether or not this signifies anything I dont know.

Your WinMTR results don't show a problem.

I would have thought that packet loss over 5% would have been a huge issue, and WinMTR suggests it's at least 15% at all times does it not?

Gave EE a ring today and they messed up a bit but ended up in contact with an indian woman who was a lot easier to understand and just made me reset to factory settings and changed 'things on their side' again - however, the light at the end of the tunnel, she said they'd send through another router if the issue continues over the next two days.

No

What does the 'loss' mean then? When it sends 300 and receives 200 that's not packets lost?

Not necessarily, and in your case, no.

It would help our understanding if you were to explain your negative responses.

Hi, if you load up a screenshot from the OP and describe why you think there is packet loss to the destination, then I can maybe offer a more relevant explain. Thanks

You're very helpful!

I'm just trying to understand this and all I see at step 1 is 18% loss, 45% loss, .. That reads a loss to me! If something is lost up to the router it can never get to any destination. If that's not a loss what is it? Just don't reply as you've been doing that it's not a loss! Make a positive effort!
