@MSK57 It is always possible that it is just the line, your hub etc with the issue, what hub do you have and what are you seeing.

@MSK57 
If your broadband isn’t working use this link to check to see if there are any problems or outages nearby.
https://www.sky.com/servicechecker
This should determine if there's an identified fault, perhaps affecting multiple households. (It doesn’t necessarily disclose a problem instantly and it takes a little while to update).

If there aren't any then try running the line test here
https://www.sky.com/help/articles/broadband-diagnostic-start
You can also run the test via the MySky app on a mobile data connection.

Once completed, if it reports back that all is good click on 'broadband' to run an updated test. If you get amber or red you need to follow the on-screen instructions.

If you’re still having problems you may need to contact Sky to report it. The easiest way is to dial 150 free from your Sky Talk landline if it’s still working.

Sky broadband being discussed here is a domestic service and whilst it's fine for those customers working from home to use it, they won't receive additional or quicker support.

@Garyyy85 pretty logically if the hub is not connected the test cannot complete so if the app isnt telling you Sky are aware of a fault call them to report the issue so it can get checked out. The recent heavy rain not yo mention lightening can often cause issues on partial fibre lines so it make take a few days for an engineer to get to your issue.
