Only 11 ES in 24 hours.

Opened a line stats thread in Fiber Broadband as this isn't really a Home network query now.

Thanks for your help everyone.

I would reset the homehub 5, and remove the hg612 entirely. Does it still drop?

HH5 has a built in modem as I am sure you know, worth trialing out.

Unfortunately the HH5 reset 3 times during Monday night 'Open RG' and then twice last night. DLM has picked up on it and taken action.

Time for it to go in the bin I think.


Still got this strange device on my LAN, only my laptop appears to find it on Advanced IP scanner. It doesn't have a host name and when I do a remote shut down on it, my laptop shuts down!

When I ping it I get <1ms. It doesn't show up in the routers address table or my WAP.

No idea what it is.

Sounds like it's your laptop. Wifi connection perhaps?

Mine always did this also - FYI my Smarthub only reboots every 14 days. The HH5A was rebooting multiple times a week sometimes.

Traced it to a Firestick I used to use that was still in the back of one of the TV's, panic over.

I know they are instructed to reboot every 14 days, which isn't really a problem but 2,4 and 6am due to Open RG and then 4pm and 9pm in the same 24 hour period is silly really.

After 2 days of uptime the issue re-occurred last night.

HG612's DSL light was off when I woke up this morning. Couldn't telnet into it on 192.168.1.2, HH5 was responding as normal.

As you can see below, LAN was flooded. 192.168.1.2 (HG612) was still showing but couldn't ping or tracert it.
