    No problem, you might get more help over there from members already on o2.

    It could possibly be a problem at your exhange but would have thought o2/BT would have informed you if that was the case, I* know there have been a few outrages on BT's exhanges in the last few days but thought that was just in the North.

    Anyway if you get it sorted or if you need more help/info please come back and let us know.

    Even if that was the case that would not explain why there is no internet/broadband light showing on router, sounds like broadband connection problem at exhange or possibly new router may require a firmware update but would have thought lights should still show that you are getting internet/dsl/broadband connection from the exhange.
