Broadband won't connect!

Hi
I haven't been able to connect to the internet since 9am this morning.
There's no problem with my phone the line is working ok!
I've tried switching the router off and on throughout the day,checking the micro filters and as of yet no joy.
I have the wifi sign show up on my ipad and iphone saying it's connected but when I try to search the web a thing pops up saying "Technicolor Gateway" or words to that effect,I did notice this problem yesterday afternoon but soon after it was ok.

Re: Broadband won't connect!

if its a technicolor router filter the log by connection and it should be one of the last entries.  If it has a IP address that starts with 172, then its a BT IP address and you would need to reboot until you got a plusnet IP address.

Re: Broadband won't connect!

Hi MrBlueyez,
I've just taken a look at your connection, more out of concern as to what was causing the issue. Your connection graph paints an interesting picture:

It looks as though something caused your connection to become very intermittent on Saturday.
I've made a couple of changes to your line settings which should help to keep it stable.
