lost connection
Was watching a video on YouTube last night when the video crashed I noticed the internet light on the router had gone off, reset the router everything worked as normal again but 10 mins later same happened now after numerous resets the internet light won't come back on, doesn't even flash amber. It just flashes green twice and goes off.
I'm already on my third router from sky, really don't want to go through sky customer services script again as I have done it so many times

Re: lost connection
Ring sky and have it logged as a fault. Have you checked if you have got dial tone? If you don't have dial tone either then you will have to ring the company you pay your line rental to instead.
Make sure you mention that you tested the router at a friends house and it worked fine.

Phoned sky reported fault they did a line test and results were perfect apparently
So its nothing on my end as nothing as changed, router is fine as tested at a friends house and there is no fault on the line.
What else is there?

Re: lost connection
Post your stats please, from your normal router position and from the Test socket, using only the ADSL cable supplied by Sky.

When Sky test your line they normally only check it for voice performance, it may well have a fault which is interfering with the broadband only.
