Re: Connection dropping, but modem lights remain healthy.

A further example (in case it helps):

[img]Download Failed (1)[/img]

As you can see, it started dropping out around 5pm yesterday and continued to do so for roughly 4 hours. Then magically it stopped and levelled out into what was a very stable connection. The internet was in use until around 3am (iPlayer mostly), hence the yellow spikes up until that point.

Then this morning at roughly 9am, the drop-outs began again (for about an hour). The internet was not in use at that time. Since then the connection has stabilized.

I assume 5pm-10pm is a peak time for internet activity, as is 8am-9am? Might this point towards an overload in the area/region causing my woes?
