  @junententh @OriginBroadband Ah ok. Don’t want to swap provider as no problem with Origin other than this. Might have found a way using port forwarding on the router - fingers crossed

  @chrislvkiz @OriginBroadband now that TalkTalk have absorbed @OriginBroadband, you should be able to request that your service be migrated OFF of OB's terrible hardware and insistence on using DOUBLE NAT (this is what is causing your issue), and onto a TALKTALK line where it should fix your problem.

  @OriginBroadband From Ofcom. “Solar flares interfere with communications” I see that Ofcom have given you another perfect excuse (for poor service)to give to your weary suffering customers. At anytime of the year.
