lol @ Sky News unbelievable there are more sources of information out there than 1 news site (which is horrible anyway).

A sample image chart of my Noise Margin in routerstats from this morning as promised.

http://i54.tinypic.com/ioqjva.jpg

Oh and BTW this was done with the Bebox not a Netgear or a TP-Link although it makes no difference they all record pretty much the same in routerstats and the disconnect issues which nredwood asked about happen with whatever router i use, be it the Bebox 585v7, Netgear 834GT or TP-Link (oh and dispite some slagging the TP-Link of its actually broadcom chipset based like the Bebox, but has a newer revision than the Bebox, so once again YOU KNOW WHO didnt have a clue)..

I see nothing wrong with the chart but maybe someone else can.

Routerstats is still running and logging, i can post the complete test log txt also, and other time periods of the graphics but if i post it all its going to take up a several forum pages its also all pretty much consistant with the time period im posting.

the stats (log) for the rough time periods of that chart are....

It needs to be a much longer continuous period, ideally showing conditions when resyncs happen. say 48 hours.

lol @ Sky News unbelievable there are more sources of information out there than 1 news site (which is horrible anyway).

It was the only site i could find with minute by minute news and live video of it all unfoldiing... I am open to alternatives that have the same thing for when you are worried about relatives possibly caught up in things overseas.

The stats only tell us anything if you are having disconnects. All the time it is sitting at around 8 or 9 dB it doesn't tell us anything. Best to post anything that either happens around a disconnect or if you get significant variations on the noise margin. Once you get one of those events all the stats tell us is you have a good stable line.

Yep thats what i thought ian72. As the stats stand is pretty much how they are all the time, when things disconnect there is no serious wobble (for want of better words) to the noise margins it just drops and router resyncs (NO matter which router im using) , theres no warning its going to happen at all.

Ill keep monitoring it, its due a resync anytime now LOL.

To be honest while i really do appreciate the help from sensible people, i dont think anyones going to know what it is for sure, i freely admit its an intermittant problem and hard to track down.

The most recent test BE done was a 24 hour monitoring of the line (done about a week ago), they said it detected nothing just like the routerstats here because nothing happened in that 24 hour period. The next day it droped and they have basically ignored trying to help solve the issue ever since.

Thanks for the advice though ian72 appreciated

In reply to a post by Terranova:

just thought i would respond as i saw my name mentioned in regards to my line etc

yes i do have a long line 56db down attenuation, i'm on standard profile ADSL1 because that was the most stable for me after trying various tests and profiles, i know and accept that due to the length of the line i can expect the odd de-sync, yet with my previous ISP the one that the op also had i was able to sync for 2 -3 months at a time not just days as it stands now, we are not the only ones to come from said previous ISP to have the same problems of less sync time with the current one.

one person having that type of issue then yes i can understand but more than one person coming from the same previous ISP and having the same type of issue when on the same current ISP doesn't to me sound like just a random problem, and before anyone asks no we are not in the same area we are in different parts of the country.

I admit i'm no expert on this type of tech but if one ISP can provide the same service on the same line with the same equipment in the home except the router now being the be-box of course and give a sync for months then surly so can the current one which isn't the case, clearly something was different then that isn't the case now and it's not the equipment / cable / master socket / faceplate etc in the house that's been checked and cleared.

I admit i can live with my situation as i say it can be days ( usually 5 days) before it re-syncs but if you have the issue the OP has of it only being a day or two at the most and you have come from a previous ISP where you synced for months at a time then it's kind of hard to accept that something isn't a miss either with the current ISP or at the exchange.

Missed this post but just wanted to say that about sums up the situation.

Theres more than a single ex-ukonliner user suffering and more than a few users which had solid lines with prior providers which no longer do.

Freely admit not all of it is BEs fault but at the same time its not all down to peoples wiring (definately not in my case or terranovas).

Something has definately changed.... What it is i dunno but many moving to BE seem to suddenly have unstable lines, thats not me BE bashing their own forums tell the story.

If terranova previously had months of uptime and now its days and i also have had months of uptime and now its days with prior providers but havent with BE but have both been through BEs tests, different profiles etc there must be a reason for it.

Botched BT migration maybe in some way, but i cant believe they have botched loads of recent connections to BE.

I recommend Pastebin

The TP-Link may be absolutely fine, but it's not the supplied router that has been extensively tested and known to work well on BE
