Netgear Genie
Apart from checking that you are using the right log in credentials for the Router ie not your Broadband login and password 
Have your tried a factory reset of the Router?
I'm not familiar with the Router myself, but if the firmware is the correct firmware for the model, then I don't see a problem, with the usual precautions regarding firmware updates of course. But you may want to wait some further advice from someone using that model.

It's highly probable that the firmware was Plusnet customised with TR-069 if nothing else, there must be several users round here using this router.
When you say there are later versions that the router does not appear to recognise, is that you tried to see if it will update to some of them and it just doesn't want to know?
In the absence of anything concrete coming up before tomorrow, one of the DCT could probably get one of Plusnet's experts (maybe Matt Turner) to pop on the thread.
If you edit your first post you can edit the title and perhaps add N150 WNR1000 V3 to it which might attract some users of it.
Ha, and whilst I was writing this I was doing a bit of a search and came up with a thread you posted in ages ago
See this post onwards. I haven't read it all but there maybe something there that helps including a link to Netgear forums.

Well done rongtw.
When I tried the page just now, I had to go through using the Product Drilldown button
Select Product Category> Routers, Modems & Gateways - Select Product Family> Wireless Routers & Gateway Modem - Select Product> WNR1000v3
Putting in the model number in the top box didn't seem to help!
I also found http://support.netgear.com/product/WNR1000v3 which has some handy links - How do I upgrade my router firmware (automatically)? is the first one

Sorry if I did not make myself clear in the first post. If I log into router, select Router Upgrade and click on Check I get the message "No new firmware version available." A few years ago I had a DG834 which I had bought myself and successfully upgraded 2 or 3 times.
If I manually download the latest firmware and install it from disk do I risk screwing up?
PS Just looked at release notes for latest firmware - pertinent to my original question:-
WNR1000v3 Firmware Version 1.0.2.60
Versions Included:
Firmware release version: V1.0.2.60NA and V1.0.2.60WW
New Features and Enhancements:
Added support for Desktop Genie and Mobile Genie App.
Added HT20/HT40 coexistence option for 2.4GHz band.
Added scheduled Wi-Fi on/off feature.
Added IGMP/IPTV support.
Added support for Gateway IP on different subnet.
Added L2TP support.
Address several potential security issues, including the fix of WPS PIN security issue.
Fixed the memory leakage issue caused by accessing to the Web GUI.
I will try and pluck up the courage tomorrow 
I did not take he plunge yesterday as was awaiting confirmation from rongtw as to precisely which firmware he had installed. My thanks to him.
Have done so now. Slightly alarmed at first that some of the admin screen were completely blank afterwards and no Router Status popup. Internet connectivity seemed ok. However, after logout and re-login to router was confronted by a rather fine new interface All seems well will try Netgear Genie Airprint later when the excitement has cooled somewhat 
Thanks to all for advice. If you have this router I recommend this upgrade.

I have the North America version and it works perfectly on my FTTC connection until I moved house
Installed Netgear Genie again - works a treat. The Airprint facility allows me to print from my iPad to my 12 year old HP Deskjet 970Cxi from PC running Windows XP. which is really good

I think a bit of Javascript at work here.
More than likely. Well I'm glad the download and upgrade went OK, and that you've got Genie working as well
