Troubleshooting Steps

Please Follow These Steps Before Booking an Engineer Visit

By completing these checks, you can often resolve the issue without needing a visit. Remember, if an engineer finds a fault within your premises, a charge will be applied to your bill for the visit.

Restart Your Router

Turn off your router, wait for about 30 seconds, and then turn it back on. This can often resolve minor connectivity issues.

Check All Connections

Ensure that all cables (power, Ethernet, phone lines, etc.) are securely connected to the router and the appropriate sockets. Loose or damaged cables can often cause connection problems.

Test Different Devices

Try connecting to the internet with different devices (e.g., laptops, smartphones, tablets) to determine if the issue is with the connection or a specific device.

Move Closer to the Router

If you are using a wireless connection, move closer to the router to see if the signal strength improves. Wireless interference from other devices or thick walls can weaken the signal.

Check Router Lights

Observe the lights on your router. Different colors and blinking patterns can indicate various issues, such as no internet connection, no line sync, etc. Refer to your router’s manual for specific light codes.

Update Firmware and Software

Ensure that your router firmware is up-to-date and that your device’s operating system and network drivers are current.

Check Filters and Splitters

If you have an ADSL connection, make sure that filters and splitters are properly installed on every phone socket that is in use.
