2.4Ghz Keeps Reverting to Default SSID

I have just received a replacement router (WiFi Hub 2) as my previous one died after nearly two years of faultless service. 

 

Upon setting up the replacement I was not able to connect any 2.4GHz devices. I contacted Talk Talk and we did a factory reset and firmware update which got it working for about 12 hours. 

 

I logged in to the router and it seems like the custom SSID for the 2.4GHz renamed itself back to the default one hence all my devices lost connection. The password remains custom however and the 5GHz is unaffected. So I rename it back and get another few 10-12 hours and then it happens again! 

 

I've never encountered anything like this, is there anything I can change with the router or is it just faulty? 

 

Thanks in advance

I can only assume the router is faulty. I have asked one of TalkTalk's support to pick your thread up and investigate it for you.

They aim to respond within 48 hours (Monday - Friday) excluding Bank Holidays, but if more urgent you can always try the Service Centre on 0345 172 0088. The posts are responded to in time/date order, oldest first.

To save yourself time, please make sure that your community profile includes your first & last names, broadband phone number & if possible an alternative contact number. This can be done by clicking on your Avatar picture and then clicking on "My Settings" followed by:-
