Ghozer   112 #2 Posted April 24, 2020 Does your router show as disconnected, or does it still look ok? the reason I ask is, Last time I used Talk Talk, we thought it kept cutting off, but it turned out it was only a DNS server issue... so using Googles DNS server(s) resolved any problems we had... ever since, anyone who has issues with TalkTalk - I check this first, and 90% of the time it fixes the problem/issues.. HOWEVER, This likely wouldn't work if it was actually fully dropping the connection, (lights on the router go off/change etc) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

No problems at all  As swarf linked, Primary is 1111 secondary is 1001. Not a chance of me remembering the IPv6 ones so you'll have to look them up. I can add them later if you want them.

I have them in a notepad doc, I don't remember them, just a copy and paste for IPv6 addresses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
