That happened to me once. I powered both boxes down for twenty minutes then switched on modem (bt box) and when that lit up as normal I switched on router. Hope that helps.

Hi Chris,
From what I can see you still haven't been able to connect;

Are you still getting the same "concentrator not reachable" message?

Re: Fibre broadband unable to connect to internet

You've certainly had several drops lately, it would be worth powering down your router and mode, for 10 minutes to see if this helps.
I'd suggest raising a fault at http://faults.plus.net so we can take a look at your line.
Let me know how you get on.

Hi
I did raise a fault but was told I seem to be connected with the modem but the problem seems to be between that and the router.will have a look later.i have reset router numerous times but with no success

Re: Fibre broadband unable to connect to internet

Hi, the graph Chris posted does actually show when the modem has either connected or disconnected so that would still be worth raising as a fault.

Re: Fibre broadband unable to connect to internet

Ahhh, I can see you raised a ticket. If you can run through the fault wizard this will give you a set of diagnostic tests to run, we can then help rule certain things out.

Re: Fibre broadband unable to connect to internet

It seems the problem is solved!!went through the fault checker as suggested and connected up ok when just going through bt modem so done a reset on router and it seems to be fingers crossed ok.
Cheers for the advice
