Sky playing up again...again...again...

[thejosh123]

So I cant believe after maybe 6 months my sky broadband is playing up again, it took about a month for them to get it sorted, after going through countless checks over and over and them sending an engineer oh it was the router that was needed!

it keeps going from local and worldwide to just local then coming back on, it worked spot on for about 6 months very fast. It seemed to happen when the phone was ringing but now it seems to happen spontaneously also, one phone has alot of crackling at times, anybody know whats wrong sorry to complain about sky, but honestly it never seems to run smoothly.

So that's the PC dropping connection - does the actual router drop the WAN connection if you check the stats? If not, the issue is your end and not the service

That looks like a problem with your PC. Try updating the adapters drivers.

one phone has alot of crackling at times,

If this is only happening on one phone and not others, it is probably the phone that is faulty.

not so sure about it being my pc, because it happens to both my laptop and desktop and the routers 3rd light goes out for like 5 minutes then comes back on or goes orange for a while after going off and eventually turns back on.

Maybe if you had mentioned that in your first post, we could have told you to call Sky and tell them that you connection is dropping. Probably better to wait till it drops and then call right away. They will then know you are really having a problem.
