Plusnet shunts blame for dodgy DNS traffic onto customers' routers

Hapless users say they were redirected to phishing sites
[quote=www.theregister.co.uk/2014/03/11/plusnet_customers_complain_about_third_party_routers_being_hijacked/]We put the allegation to Plusnet. Your correspondent notes the firm is quite sluggish when it comes to responding to press inquiries through the normal channels.
