Did someone factory reset the Hub ? have you checked that the correct username & password is still configured on the BT Hub ?

The hub has been factory reset but you can't even get o the hub manager page even with the details on the hub all I get is connected but no Internet I had no problems before my Internet went down I've had previously changed all the hubs details to plusnet settings and it worked fine only had problem since Internet went down I've tried all the advice on the forums nothing works

@Jford965 if the hub has been factory reset then you WILL need to reenter your Plusnet username & password. The detailed instructions are here https://community.plus.net/t5/My-Router/Using-the-BT-Smarthub-6-on-a-Plusnet-Account/m-p/1587673#M85...

If you are connecting wireless to the Hub , then  check that you are using the correct wirless password (label on back of hub ) as it MAY have changed during the reset

Are you trying to input your Plusnet credentials with the DSL cable plugged in? It MUST be disconnected whilst you do this.
