Well my BT engineer friend was over (I disconnected the internet to identify it as you can see in red). He said there was a problem at the pole (which he unofficially went up and sorted it out) although thanks to you guys who identified that there was a problem with the internal wiring, he also fixed this issue which he said would majorly affect the broadband.

I think I'll wait for just a bit longer just to ensure that everything is OK.

Sounds like a result then.

Oh no, look at it now.

What happened?

Oh God I don't know - just was relieved to finally have got the issue sorted and then bam, it's back.

Remember I was saying how whenever I reset my modem it fixes itself for about an hour? That must have been what happened...

er, no... Can you post a pic of what your BT engineer did to the Orange/white - Orange/Blue joint?

So does a reset correct it this time?

Been a long thread. How many routers have been tried?

These are bad pictures as I didn't have a torch on hand so I'll just post them up anyway - if you need any help determining which wires are which, let me know:

I'm going to post them all - near the end, this is the box beside the master socket where the wire comes in from the other point (room) I've been mentioning.

It goes from pole > room > garage (box where master socket is also located).

Just a side note: about 3 different modems have been used.

Things looked a lot better between 4am and 8am, Jack. What was happening then?

Wagstaff

To be honest, I don't have a clue. My laptop turns off at around 3.30am?

Thanks wagstaff for your help. Jack
