Broadband username is “setup@plusdsl.net” after router reset

Had to reset the router after the wi-fi stopped working (initially 5GHz then 2.4), now I’ve no Internet and I can’t get through on the phone (despite ringing before 8pm).

Is there a way of changing to the correct broadband username in the router settings?

Re: Broadband username is “setup@plusdsl.net” after router reset

Apologies, found where to put the username in the router settings.

 

Still have huge issues with wi-fi. 5GHz passwords not being accepted after splitting from 2.4GHz as a laptop (Zenbook with Intel AX201 chipset on latest - May 2021- drivers) will not connect at quicker than 4Mbit per second, usually under 1Mbit. I've read the forum posts on these issues and haven't been able to solve them yet.

I suggest that you join this thread and request a firmware update. https://community.plus.net/t5/My-Router/Hub-One-5GHz-WiFi-issue/m-p/1696363#M15510

Re: Broadband username is “setup@plusdsl.net” after router reset

Many thanks Baldrick1 I hadn't found that thread which exactly matches my symptoms. After the router reset I had one day of decent speeds without splitting out 2.4 and 5GHz but today I'm back to 1Mbps (presumably because the DHCP lease time is set to 1 day?).

Hi @drwarrowsmith, thanks for getting in touch and I'm sorry to hear you're having connection issues as of recent. I can confirm when checking your connection from this side currently we can see there's an underlying fault currently being detected with your connection however the fault location of which isn't clear. In which case, please can you run through the below internal checks your side to see if the same issues you've been seeing look to persist.


I'd recommend starting with basic checks here:http://goo.gl/p2tpvL
 

And if that doesn't help the next thing would be to rule your internal wiring out by plugging the connection into your test socket which is under the faceplate of your master socket and seeing if the speed issues and drops in connection  look to stop. This rules out internal wiring, face plates and extension sockets as being the cause. How to locate the test socket and set your connection into it can be found here:
https://community.plus.net/t5/Library/Testing-From-The-Master-Socket/ba-p/1322242
 

Please let us know how it goes and I'd advise whilst we're detecting an underlying issue with the connection to please run wired speed tests if you're not already as this will help rule out the possibility of underlying wireless issues also. By all means if there are wireless issues present after the underlying fault has been resolved then we'll happily help address them.

I look forwards to hearing from you further.
