Internet connection keeps dropping

We keep losing connection to the internet, wired and wifi. Everything works fine with good speeds, then connection drops. The internet light flashes orange and the voice light is a solid orange. Then around 5 minutes later, the box resets and everything comes back on normally

Re: Internet connection keeps dropping

All the lights green, connection upstream dropped.  WiFi and wired drop same time.  Lasts upward to 5+ mins mostly less.  Router,  wires, Fibre, all replaced.  This has been happening since FTTC.  Exchange is Holme Hale, a mile and a half from me.  Sky has been NO HELP being bent on problem in my house!  Several new hubs, wire all replaced from cabinet.  NO HELP from Sky.

Re: Internet connection keeps dropping

Is there a Sky syslog server to send hub logs?
