The reasons are manifold!
What model router are you using and what operating system are you using would be two important pieces of information.
Did you change anything at all between when it worked and when it didn't work?
Do you have a laptop?

Are your PC and router reasonably close?
When you do see a signal from Plusnet is it reasonably strong (and stronger than all your neighbours)?
If a laptop, does it help to move closer to the router?

Changing the channel from 1 to 11 in the router setup pages worked a treat for me.
