My Internet connection is down

The other day while at work my wife messged me to say the Internet was down. When I got home i power cycled the sky hub and regained connection. 

 

An hour ago the connection dropped again. Power cycled the router 4 times, the the sky broadband checker which initially says there's a fault, it then goes on to do the fix, everything on the broadband checker goes green and says fixed but still no connection. 

 

Power light green, Internet light is dim green/off, WiFi light is green, voice is red/amber.

 

When plugging in my phone to the hub no tone, just a crackling sound. 

 

This is on the 500mbs package with PON box. 

 

There's not much else I can do at my end so I'm assuming either a cabinet issue or external?

Re: My Internet connection is down

Now instead of everything showing up green in the broadband checker it's now showing a fault but when trying to apply the fix after around 60 seconds I get the message:

 

Oops, that didn't work


We're having some problems and our tests are unavailable at the moment.

Try again later so we can test your connection

Sky broadband test is failing the hub connection test, then the fix times out with the oops message.
