Re: New Broadband not working

Hi Shaun,
A warm welcome to the forums and PlusNET.
Exactly which lights are on and is any of them not green?  Have you looked at the connection status in the router?  Use the appropriate xDSL link below.  Then look around the router pages.  You are looking for Internet connection status.  Check the account details - it should reference your username. Sometimes this does not set up automatically.
There after, on your PC launch a CMD window and type 'tracert Google.co.uk' omitting the quotes.  The detail of the result will inform to what extent (if any) you have connected to PlusNET.
HTH,
Kevin
