@darklight1 is the ASUS a combined modem/router? Which unit do you have connected currently, and is your Plusnet unit a Hub1 or Hub2?

Not a combined modem router, its one if the old BT openreach modems, and I have a plusnet technicolor router, but I usually use a asus rt ax58u router normally.

Re: looks like my fttc down

OK. In that case:-

It sounds very much like you have a problem - most likely not in your home/office environment, but more likely in the BT/OR network.

First thing to check: Is your phoneline clear? Dial 17070 (preferably from a corded phone), select option 2. Once your phone number is confirmed, there should be silence on the line except for the regular 'Quiet Line Test' message - any other noise, report a PHONE problem via: https://www.plus.net/help/report-a-problem/phone/

If the phone test passes, report a broadband problem via: https://www.plus.net/help/report-a-problem/broadband/

Let us know the result - if the tests come back as clear but you still have a problem, we need to investigate further.

Hey there @darklight1

 

Sorry it took a while to get back to you. Super busy in Plusnet HQ at the moment. Can you just confirm it's all resolved now after the outage?

Glad to hear that. Did you try my suggestions, though - if you had, you may have got your answer earlier?
