Had smart router fitted on Fibre Max 300. First engineer installed with new master socket. WiFi very week and dropping out. Had 3 further engineers WiFi is very weak. Dropping out now getting impossible 6 times tonight between 6:30 and 9:30pm. May get this finished tried twice, if lucky. Now referred to CAT team. But have to wait 3 days for contact. Please is anyone experiencing this nightmare too. Will try and get out of contract. Accept weak WiFi but cannot continue with internet dropping out so frequently. Using so much data.

@LynnMary : Welcome to EE's Home Broadband Forum.
Is it the BB as a whole dropping or just the WiFi connections? Do Ethernet connected devices stay working? What colours are the light sequence when it happens?
If you would like help with your BB speed or connection issues, please would you carry out the following steps for starters, which will enable us to diagnose the problem and advise you further. Do not restart your router to do these tests:
1. Post your full router stats:
Full router stats are key to any speed & connection issues.
2. Try a wired speedtest, using an Ethernet cable supplied with the router, here http://www.thinkbroadband.com/speedtest.html . Click on the "Results Page" button at the bottom of the graph you first see and then copy to here just the "Link to this result:" link that you see below the next main graph.
3. What does BT Wholesale Broadband Availability Checker estimate for your phone number? Post just the whole table and the line above it, blanking out your phone number. If it doesn't recognise your phone number or you don't have one, use the Address Checker, not the Postcode Checker.

To get the router stats login to your EE Smart Router at http://192.168.1.254 with the admin password on the bottom of the slider label on the back of the router.
No other user is able to fix a fault on your specific line, which is what this is.
