Hi @Zeroblue,

I'm very sorry that your connection has been down and for any inconvenience that this has caused you. I've looked into this and it appears that your line is now back in sync, however the correct authentication details have dropped out of your router and so it is not letting you online at the moment. This can normally be fixed with a factory reset of the router - there's a reset pinhole on the back and you'd need to push something in to this for at least 15 seconds. If you're still unable to get online following the reset, please run through the following steps to manually configure your router:

1) Open up a webpage and in the address bar type http://192.168.1.254

2) You should come to a page with information about your connection, click 'Settings' at the top and it will ask you to sign in with a Password. This is located on the back of your router under 'Admin Password'

3) Click on the 'Broadband' tab. You should then see a username and password box. If this doesn't come up, please click the 'disconnect' button

4) Your username is your account username with @plusdsl.net at the end and your password is your account password. Input both of these and press 'Connect' and you should now be online.

Please let us know if you continue to experience any problems with your connection after this.

Thanks that sorted the issue. Not sure what caused the original problem though....
