cant connect to internet, Power button on router orange?

Last night my internet dropped so I checked the router and there seems to be aan amber/orange light above the power button. It changes to green for about 10 seconds then.back to amber. Tried unplugging it and resetting it etc to.no.avail. Left it over night.and its still the same. Any ideas what the problem might be?

Thanks

Hi there,
Sorry to hear about the problem with the router.
I'm going to advise trying a factory reset: http://www.plus.net/support/broadband/hardware/technicolor-582n-faqs.shtml#factoryReset
If that doesn't help it's likely you'd need to replace it. If that's needed I can see the router's just outside it's warranty however we can send you a new one for £5.99.
Let us know how you get on.

I can't guarantee that as the deliveries take up to 3 working days.
Let me know if you want to get a new router from us as we just need to speak briefly over the phone in order to take the payment, I don't mind making the call if that's something you want to do.

If he's had the router less than a year and it's faulty, does he have to pay?
