Intermittent connection issues loading/changing site- secure connection failed/site can't be reached

[EDIflyer]

Is anyone else occasionally getting a 'connection down' error from Chrome (or 'Secure Connection Failed' from Firefox) when changing page - if I hit refresh it works fine. At first I wondered if it was the site I was using but have noticed it on multiple different major websites over the past couple of months and not noticed it from other locations where I don't use Three Broadband so does seem to be related to the router/connection (this is via wired Ethernet too, so not a WiFi problem).  I've tried changing DNS server in case that helps but no difference.

It mainly seems to happen when trying to first load a site or (annoyingly) at checkout when a different site is being loaded as part of the checkout process.  It certainly doesn't happen everytime but does happen with reasonable frequency.  I've also noticed I often get it when trying to pull/push from/to Github too and have to do so a number of times for it to work (browsing the Github website works fine).

I'm using a NR5103E with Firmware Version V1.00(ACBJ.0)b14 - I tried rebooting it but to no effect.

Seems especially bad for me today.  especially duckduckgo, asda.com, groceries.asda.com, and even amazon (tho less often).  Also noticed that using a site such as hotukdeals, the referral links they use that take through to the actual amazon page are very frequently failing so needing to refresh pages multiple times, "An error occurred during a connection to hotukdeals.digidip.net. PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR"

Like @EDIflyer my net also went down last night for approx 10mins, around 1am ish.  Only just had time to test it, hoping it was maybe resolved,but nope same issue here, sites like duckduckgo fairly frequently failing, debrid files failing to complete the download at the very end every time etc

Oh damn, sorry to hear that - interesting you had an outage though too.

Sure, I will be down to participate. Issues are still prevalent on my connection.

Hi everyone,

@EDIflyer mentioned they haven't been seeing the same error recently, but I don't want to write this off as resolved, particularly when others have mentioned this issue coming and going in the past.

We'd like to do some live tracing against affected connections. Is anyone interested in participating in this?

Thanks,
Jonathan

Hi Jonathan!

I've been away from the UK since December or so, but since coming back last week I've been suffering this problem quite badly... I'd love to participate / provide helpful information to get this issue resolved ASAP!

Thanks a ton!

Hi @JonathanB 

I'm still having this error across multiple sites. I'd be happy to help with some live tracing.

Although not glad you're having issues @toaster I'm equally glad you are if you know what I mean! Weird that it stopped for me today but great if you could help with live tracing.
