I've looked into this and have responded here. Your order is being managed by our Provisioning Team however I will ensure this is followed up with you.

Thank you for your reply, really not impressed with the extended wait for broadband I was expecting both the phone and broadband to go live at the same time.
Plusnet have let a long standing customer down badly.

So, I had a phone call confirming my broadband would be going live 4th November, its now the 5th November, I still do not have broadband.
During Monday 4th November Openreach ADSL checker has changed from
There is an open order on your line which is due to complete by 04-Nov-2019
to
There is an open order on your line which is due to complete by 08-Nov-2019.
Why?
As previously stated I was expecting both phone and broadband to go live on 22nd October, by 00:01 9th November I would be without a full service for 18 days.
This is very poor service by both you and your 'partners', I would like a full explanation on why this delay has occurred and why when Openreach installed the phone line they didn't also commision the broadband connection. The status of this order has gone beyond an apology.

Hi @Dan_the_Van,
Thanks for getting in touch.
I'm sorry to hear this and apologise sincerely for the ongoing delay, the latest was certainly unexpected.
I have looked into this and requested a reason for this from our suppliers Openreach. I've responded here and will monitor this for you tomorrow. I'm in until 17:30 so if there's no response then I'll pass this on to as colleague to monitor.
If you have any further queries, please let me know.
Thanks - LF

I have been advised by the Openreach engineer he has completed the necessary work in the cabinet. As expected the broadband light indicates the connection is waiting to be enabled which I assume can be a wait up to midnight.
Regards
DtV.

From what I can see your broadband order completed at 14:18:55 in the supplier systems. Line tests aren't showing any issues with the phone line although we're unable to run a broadband test due to a temporary issue with the testing system.
If you've not already I'd recommend going through the troubleshooting steps Here as we may need to report a fault to our suppliers and arrange an engineer visit to investigate further.
I'm keeping an eye on this from our side and I'll let you know as soon as I'm able to run a test.

Hi Dan,
The good news is that the testing system is back up and your broadband is staying connected to the equipment at the cabinet, however your router is trying to connect into our network using the automatic setup username setup@plusdsl.net which likely won't work as you've got a Free-Online account from the days long gone.
Could you follow the below instructions to reconfigure your router please?
1. Open an internet browser and type http://192.168.1.254 into the address bar
2. Press the 'Enter' or 'Return' key
3. Click on 'Advanced Settings'
4. Enter the admin password, which is on the back of the router
5. Click on 'OK'
6. Click on 'Continue to Advanced Settings'
7. Click on 'Broadband'
8. Click on 'Disconnect' if necessary
9. Enter your broadband username, which is in the format of username@freeonline.net
10. Enter your broadband password, which is your account password
11. Click on 'Connect'
Let me know how it goes.

This has not fixed the issue, I changed the password as well.
After a restart from a router reset the blue light does come on, but once the router login as my free-online account b goes red connection led goes orange. I am trying another reset with the new password

Thanks for getting back to us @Dan_the_Van
Odd as the last connection attempt we're seeing into the BT network is using 'SETUP@PLUSDSL.NET' at 17:48:19. I wouldn't factory reset your router as it appears the hardware management system isn't giving your router the right realm i.e. @plusdsl.net as opposed to freeonline.net
Let us know how it goes once you've manually changed the username in the router settings and tried the new password.

So I switched the router off for 10 minutes and it has now working as it should do. I appear to have lost the static IP address I had before, can you please confirm I should still have a static address as I would like it back without paying again, preferably the one I used to have. I know what it was.
This house move as not gone very well and caused me much unnecessary frustration and extra expense for a mi-fi router. I look forward to a root cause analysis on what went wrong and why I did not go live for both the phone and broadband on the 22nd October.
Dan.

I’m happy to see you’re back online now. Let me review this and see what we can do to get your static IP back and offer a goodwill gesture when I’m back in the office tomorrow.
