    lee111s I can't load that page from my laptop via wifi. I will get my husband to try via the Ethernet connection later.

    It may be tomorrow though. He has been looking at solutions all day and is a bit stressed just now.

    Edit: apparently he's already tried via the ethernet and the page wouldn't even load.

    Something might be wrong with the laptop if it won't load a page. I've had broadband faults previously where my line was connected at 160kbps and I've been able to load web pages.

    It's 3 different laptops, 2 phones, 2 kindled, a smart tv and an Amazon firestick. They can't all have developed the same fault at the same time.

    Thanks for the help everyone.

    I would be asking BT for a new HUB saying you tested with another router and it works well .

    The first person we spoke to mentioned sending out a new hub and I don't really understand why they haven't tried that yet.

    In a phone call this morning they said that it sounds like a network problem. I think I could have told them that. We will see what happens on Monday when they say they will have finished testing and are phoning us back.

    New hub will either be chargable or start a new contract .
  • Never had BT Infinity so not sure if this is applicable (it's testing the master socket to rule out internal wiring):

    Thanks for all the support on here. We really appreciate it.

    Just to let you know that whatever BT did remotely has worked and when I got home a few minutes ago the internet is working as usual. Hopefully that will continue.
