SOLVED: Internet connection problems: SOLVED

Hi, could you please check if there are any ongoing issues in my area please.
Whenever i try and log into my router it comes up with an EE login page unless i connect by wire to the router.
Also speedtest seems to indicate that i am on the EE high speed internet.
My son has been complaining for a couple of days about slow internet and gaming being virtually impossible online at the moment.
I have updated to the latest router firmware "Asus RT-66U" and even reset the router with no luck.
Thanks.
