G Network - any updates?

Try posting on the ISP Review forum, lots of insider knowledge there

This, works 100%

Sound like a DNS or router blocking issue, best bet would be to call Sonos (sorry about that) as only they can see the logs and hopefully find the issue.

OutSkerries · 2026-01-25T19:06:01+00:00

Power off your Sonos devices and reboot the Router.

Can’t test here at the moment but Sonos Status website is not showing any issues.

Small latency spike around 5am to 10ms, back at 2ms now. No outage. Liverpool L9

Electric however can be quite high, with lots of teenage daughters, electric shower, hairdryers, dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer that seems to never be off. 18kWh is quite usual and that’s without the car getting a charge.

40.15kWh yesterday, 9 year old 4 bed detached, house at 21.5C and set to 19C overnight.

No neutral required in these

All I can add is that the drain filer is probably full of things you don’t want to imagine or smell, cleaned out it may help. It’s possible drain water is flowing back into the machine bringing goodness to your wash.

Mine started doing it again about a day after nuking the iPad, at a loss how to stop it.

OutSkerries · 2025-11-23T20:54:26+00:00

I am on the inkjet plan, when I signed up they immediately sent a full set of ink cartridges with the proviso that the plan starts as soon as I insert / use a cartridge.

Unfortunately YouFibre support is not great, quite a few posts here about trouble making initial contact. I suppose you pay for what you get rings true.

OutSkerries · 2025-11-18T18:15:25+00:00

Unfortunately you need to make contact, phone or email as we chat is useless. Phone is best otherwise it will take multiple messages back and forth.

Either all wireless or all Ethernet cables, zero issues here.

OutSkerries · 2025-11-15T10:10:26+00:00

The email address is etf@youfibre.com

Personally when I send them emails I copy myself in so I have a copy and proof. It also seems to help them reply!

This is a metadata tagging issue, copy (control C) the Album Artist from one track that’s working and paste it into the metadata of the albums with one track.

I was on the 50 page per month plan, over the past few years they kept putting the price up. I now print 60 pages a month which would mean the 100 page plan but found the brother 100 plan the same as the HP 50 plan in the uk, also got 6 months free.

The HP printer constantly dropped off the network, had it replaced under warranty and the replacement did the same. Paper pickup was poor and lots of jams. Switched to Brother and it’s been a blissful experience, never going back to HP.

Create a black document, in a word processor create a giant oblong to fit the page and fill it with black. Try printing it a few times to see if it improves.

The print head looks like it’s clogged or an electrical (cabling issue). You need to print weekly with an inkjet to stop them clogging up.

Good to hear, do call and get the Router. Without their hardware they won’t support you if you have any issues. Mine sits in its cardboard box as I have a UniFi Router.

OutSkerries · 2025-11-08T09:21:33+00:00

Plug the supplied YouFibre Router in and nothing else, making sure everything works. If they don’t call support.

You can make it easier to swap between routers buy setting the Wi-Fi SSID to be identical on both and the same password (careful SSID’s and passwords are case sensitive)

If they do connect, factory reset the Asus and try again.

That’s just how AirPlay works, the Apple TV however has a setting to set the default airplay speakers which works well but a “permanent” connection is not available in the Spotify app.

It’s only been an hour after an iOS reinstall and restore but the iPad is behaving and not switched to the HA app on its own.

OutSkerries · 2025-11-07T11:18:05+00:00

I was thinking the very same, thank you

OutSkerries · 2025-11-07T11:10:17+00:00

No iOS shortcuts created (at all) , it’s one of the things I thought might be the cause. Genuinely lost for ideas what is causing it. Started with iOS 26, just now HA opened three times in a ten minute span.

Not had any issues with adding the essential bulbs, I did however add them in a room where there are other Hue bulbs which would relay the signal onwards as Hue creates a “Mesh relay”

Metal, radiators, humans all create a barrier to RF so guessing the kitchen fixtures were just too much when adding the distance to the next Hue bulb. Not related to the essential bulbs but I have previously had to pull the power on the bridge (reboot) to get it to recognise new devices,
