To cut this story short, we signed to a new ISP "TALKTALK" phone package etc, 4 months ago. about 6 weeks ago the internet kept disconnecting but this didnt seem a real issue as we were able to immediately reconnect. Then over a period of about 2 weeks the reconnecting was taking longer until it got to 2 hours to reconnect. After 3 million calls to Talktalk and following their instruction to the letter the internect connected again. But to be honest NOTHING was any different, all their instruction were just a series of tests and trials. So back up and running, then last week it started again only by last Thursday it just would not reconnect. I have moved the PC to the room were the Master socket is located and plugged everything into that as told to do by TT. Thursday evening it happened again. Another 500 calls to TT and they have decided to send me new router. Today I switched on just in the hope and nothing, then after several hours and having give up I just left everything switched on. Low and behold this evening I noticed the internet light and DSL light were lit. Ha, I was connected, dont ask me how. So now I can get on here and ask your advice.
I have a desktop PC. Into the master socket (test socket) I have a microfilter, into this is the phone and the router cable. What is happening? I dont want to start forking money out as I could be replacing the wrong thing. Is it the Master Socket?? Is it my router, which is a D-Link provided by Talk Talk. Anyone got any ideas, suggestions.
Please help as I am afraid that if this disconnects I wont be able to reconnect again.
DIYNOT has helped so many times in the past so I am hopeful of a resolution from someone.
