Okay so I have a Fibre setup from Talk Talk with an open reach modem, and a TP-Link N900.

Last weekend my internet went completely down, and it was down till this Wednesday. At which point things have felt like dailup, I straggle to load any web page, mostly it just gives up or I end up with a page with no assets. After a lot of trying I managed too get speedtest.net to load up, it took a minute too start up but the speeds where fine, 40down and 2up.

So this makes no real sense too me, it seems like its strange too get any sort of connection, my router reports everything as fine, and when I do seem to get something it downloads fine. I've reset everything, and left everything upload over night but its still the same. I've tried switching back too the router supplied by talktalk, it was worse.

At this point I'm sorta at a lose, I have an engineer coming over but TalkTalk I've told me that if my internet connection is up they will charge me £60 :/. Rather sort it out and just cancel it, anyone have the vaugest of ideas.
 
Was about to say the same. Sounds like DNS issues. Set the DNS in router as 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
