Plusnet hub one internet connection died, orange glow

Hello

I've been a customer for nearing 4 years now. Today at 5:30pm I had the dreaded orange glow of death and it hasn't resolved itself like it usually does in around 5 10 mins.

Admin page on the hub trieas to connect but fails. Nothing in the logs apart from a strange issue regarding the log timestamps; they appear to start from midnight 08 Nov each time tha hub restarts.

In the logs I note it tries to connect to https://dbtpnhdm.bt.mo and then logs it could not resolve host. If the hub datetime is screwed it might be failing to negotiate https

To make things worse I use lastpass to manage my credentials and it needs online access to work. Which means I can't log into my plusnet account to raise a ticket.

If I reset my plusnet account password is that the same password the hub uses to authenticate with plusnet?

I have now got into my plusnet account. But I can't see where you raise a ticket?

Fix

After many many reboot attempts, one of them finally fixed the issue, and what do you know the log timestamps are now correct.

 

Am going to look into getting a replacement hub, the last firmware update this one has had was in Feb 2019... yay secure.
