No connection after power cut

[Emmerrr]

Had a very quick power cut early this morning.

My router hasn't connected to the internet since.

I have checked all cables, turned the router off for half an hour numerous times, and reset it, but still no joy.

Any help please?

Hi, my router has arrived. All working. Thank you.

Hi Emmerrr

Apologies for this.

The router is on its way, please allow 24-48hrs for this to arrive.

Please let us know how you get on.

Thanks

Hi, the openreach engineer has been and fixed my phone line. But the router still won’t connect. He tried multiple times. He tried to ring up to get a replacement router sent out but the lady from TalkTalk said that his report had to be sent through first.

No problem 🙂

[Emmerrr]

Morning,

The update from Openreach advises that the next step will be to arrange an engineer visit to the property. Could you provide a few days availability please AM (8-1) and PM (1-6) and we'll book in the next available appointment. 

Could you also confirm acceptance of possible time related charges which would apply if the engineer found not fault or if the fault is related to your own equipment or wiring. If the fault is located on Openreach maintained equipment then no charges should apply.

Hi @Emmerrr 

I've spoken to Openreach and they have advised that the fault is scheduled for 09/04/24, for the engineer to investigate (external investigation)

I will check on this again on 10/04 for updates.

[Debbie-TalkTalk]

HI Emmerrr

Sorry for the delay.

The fault is still with Openreach. I will speak to Openreach this morning for more information and I post back on this thread.

Thanks

[Chris-TalkTalk]

No further updates yet, we'll check again on Monday

Hi Emmerrr,

This still appears to be in hand with Openreach, I'll check for further updates later

[Emmerrr]

Hi Debbie,

the engineer didn’t contact me yesterday.

[Debbie-TalkTalk]

Hi Emmerrr

Can I just check, did the Openreach line engineer contact you yesterday?

[Debbie-TalkTalk]

Hi Emmerrr

The fault has been assigned to a line engineer this morning so we should hopefully have more information later this afternoon.

Thanks

Debbie

[Debbie-TalkTalk]

Hi Emmerrr

This fault is still with the Openreach line engineers, I will continue to monitor for additional updates.

Thanks

Debbie

[Debbie-TalkTalk]

Hi Emmerrr

I'm really sorry to hear this.

The line test has detected a potential line fault so I have passed this straight over to Openreach to be investigated by a line engineer.

I will continue to monitor for additional updates and I will post back on this thread.

Thanks

[Emmerrr]

Thank you for taking the time to try and help.

Oh well in that case you will need TalkTalk to sort it, I was just hoping it might be something that I might have been able to help with. I have asked one of TalkTalk's support to pick your thread up and investigate it for you. There is a skeleton service from TT on the forum tomorrow, other than that it will be Tuesday.

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.
