Intermittently faulty router

Hi Guys,

 

My Hub 2 is faulty. A couple of days ago, it could not authenticate with the network to get internet access, its light flashed amber and white. I tried another router in its place, and that worked OK. After a day, I put the Hub 2 back on, and it was fine. However, it has just died again with the same symptoms. With the older router on in its place, I do have service again.

 

Please can it be replaced,

 

Thanks.

Hi @Debbie-TalkTalk @Chris-TalkTalk 

 

The replacement router is fine, but it did not come with a returns bag for the old router. Please could you send me one?

 

Thanks very much.

I had a call today saying that the router will be delivered tomorrow (Wednesday), so thanks very much to you both for your efforts with this.

Hi @Chris-TalkTalk 

 

The replacement 5464 is faulty. It was supplied with firmware V158, and that all worked OK.

 

A short while after that, it did a firmware upgrade, and it now does not show the firmware version on the login page and will no longer accept the default router password. I did a factory reset, and it is still the same. It looks like the firmware update has bricked this router. Please can you send me another one?
