New Sky Broadband Installation no internet

So, we had a Kelly Communications engineer come round yesterday and he installed a new Openreach Master Socket 5C (Property hasn't had BT phone line in over 20 years) and he hooked up the Sky Broadband hub. Had a text from Sky saying broadband is activated and no internet obviously. Waited till after midnight - still no broadband.

 

If I run the Sky broadband checker even with the router off and disconnected it says it's connected and fine and if I go to Wifi Checker it shows devices that 100% aren't mine. It shows a Galaxy S8 but I'm the only one who's connected to Sky broadband router so 100% there is only 1 device on the network and it's an iPhone.

 

I've tried factory resetting the Sky router and re-plugging the cables in.

 

Does this just sound like they've activated the wrong phone line?

 

Secondly will this affect Sky Q installation? They're meant to be installing that today but obviously no internet. Does that just mean no Netflix etc on Sky Q?

 

Thanks.

Can't edit my post, but just to add that the Internet light on the Sky broadband router is not lit up. Only two are lit up which I believe are Power and Wifi.

@chompy it sounds like Sky have a crossed line and you are seeing the details of the wrong hub in the test.

 

I have therefore escalated your post to the Sky team who support the forum who should be in touch soon to offer you a private chat session to get this sorted.

Just thought I'd post a follow up - open reach came yesterday and had a look and determined that kelly communications didn't hook it up at the green box properly - it wasn't even close. Open reach sorted it and all is working again.

 

Thanks again for your help 🙂
