Using BT Smart Hub (HH6) with Plusnet

I've been using the HH6 with Plusnet without issue since Nov 2022, but this this morning the internet disconnected and I noticed my login details had reverted to the default BT log in. I repopulated my Plusnet credentials and did a couple of restarts, but with no success. I then did a restore using the backup file I'd created shortly after going live with Plusnet but this didn't work either. I then tried a factory reset followed by another restore - still no joy.

Does anyone (i.e. @Baldrick1) know whether BT have suddenly blocked the hubs being used with Plusnet?

Think that you have to disconnect it from the Internet first, remove the connecting cable from the phone socket/ONT.

Enter your details, save them, switch off, connect cable and switch on.

If not, someone with more knowledge will be along, I'm sure.

Update: Just called Plusnet and apparently there's a major outage in my area. This thread can be deleted.
