No internet - solid white light

Hi

Overnight the router went down. Woke up to a flashing green WiFi light. I have reset at the back but now the router is just a solid white light. Or is it a yellow light? It’s hard to tell!

Devices pick up the router but won’t access the internet.

Thanks

Is it just a wifi issue or do devices connected on an ethernet cable connect to the network? A solid white(ish!) light usually means the connection is ok.

What Hub model is it? You could try a pinhole reset a per this. Make sure the 2 passwords on the Hub sticker are still there and legible first ! Disconnect any ethernet cables from the Hub (leave the coax connected), and then with the Hub still "switched on" throughout, press pin in firmly with paper clip/SIM tray tool or similar "thin thing" and hold it firmly for at least 60 seconds, release the pin, leave for 5’ to stabilise - dont manually switch it off at any time. See if that sorts it.

Also check for a known fault, call the “free & automated” Service Status number - 0800 561 0061 - which usually gives the most up to date info. and tells you of more local issues down to postcode level.

Hi Dreamfish, thanks for getting in touch.

 

Sorry for any service issues you've experienced recently. I've taken a look into this today and it looks like an engineer has already been around to check things over - so I hope there's been some improvement since your post?

If not please let us know so we can look further into it for you.
