Lan cable disconnected should be a hardware fault with the connection between your router and freesat box. I say should because even if you had no broadband connection you would still have a lan connection between router and freesat box but the freesat box could be reporting no internet connection as lan cable disconnected. If it gives the message again see if you have the connection light on for the freesat port on your router. That shows if there is a hardware connection on that port. You could check while it is working which poer and light is active now on your router, you may also have a little LED light of 2 under the socket where the Lan cable plugs in on your freesat box - some do and some don't, these light usual light/flash showing connection and communication.
Was the broadband dropping on another device as well?
