It is however a TG582n router, which I believe is the same box that is supposed to be sent to fibre customers.
So... is it possible to get the TG582n working with fibre using an old ethernet cable I have instead of the red cable? I have tried to connect it up, but it didn't work.
The green broadband light didn't stop flashing, and when I got to the router login page it didn't accept the router access password that I have received.
Do I need to get another router from PN?
thanks in advance for any tips. currently using PC connected directly to Openreach modem. That works fine.

Quote and when I got to the router login page it didn't accept the router access password that I have received
The router access password is the serial no, it's printed on the underside of the router.

Also try a factory reset
and then see if it will accept the password
Quote While the unit is on, hold down a thin object such as a paper clip into the reset hole at the back next to the power button until the power light on the unit goes off. Release the reset button.

Also try "Administrator" (note capital A) and leave the password box blank.
