Assigned a private IP address?

Router IP and default gateway have both been assigned unusable IPs and I therefore have no connection to the internet.
Tried manually reconnecting and rebooting the router, no luck. I seem to get a different IP each time (last was 172.20.21.102)
Any ideas? Should also mention the download speeds have gone to hell recently - yesterday was down to around 5mb at times.
I'm on FTTC.

Something major happened at 12.30am, guessing cleaner needed a socket for a hoover. Seriously guessing a lot of us got disconnected and had the same issue going by TBB graphs

At least it's not just me A couple more restarts fixed it.
Would be interested in knowing the reason for this (from a technical perspective)

That's an internal BT IP address there. I just got one recently a few moments ago. It is probably all down to the PN router maintenance scheduled for the wee hours of today.
Best thing to do is disconnect in your router's GUI and click connect. It should connect now as I'm back online too after seeing the same as you.

Yeah my internet cut off aswell. Strange thing is, i wasn't even able to log back into my router at all. Had to turn both BT Openreach modem off and also the Plusnet. Re-connected fine though!

There was also a fair bit of planned BT work in the early hours.
