ONT lights not coming on

I've plugged in my sky hub (correctly I think?) and I have the power and WiFi lights coming on in green, but the internet light is non responsive. I also have no lights coming on on the ONT. I believe my troubles are due to there being an issue with the ONT? I'm trying my hardest to book an engineer to come and have a look at it but I can't seem to talk to someone long enough to sort this out due to my working hours. Any advice?

If the ONT isn't powering up then it's impossible to be getting FTTP broadband.

Re: ONT lights not coming on

How can I fix this? Or is this an engineer's job?

Realistically all you can do is check the socket has power by plugging in a different device: if that works then you'll need to log the problem with Sky.

@Charlotte184 Have you checked the ONT on/off switch as some do have them! Nokia is on the LHS and Adtran is on the RHS both push button styled!

Re: ONT lights not coming on

I'm a bit of a novice with all this stuff so I apologise if I ask silly questions. But my ONT is just a box on the wall with a wire coming out into a smaller box that leads outside. When I moved in it didn't have anything else plugged into it. If that makes sense? Haha 

 

Is this the correct set up or sm I missing something?

Yes, it has a push on/off button on the side. I'm not sure which is the 'on', but being both pushed in and out seems to make no difference in the lack of green lights 😕

@Charlotte184 The ONT will have three connections on it, a Fibre cable with a green coloured connection, a RJ45 Ethernet going to the Sky Hub wan connection, and the PSU 12V power connection cable going away to a mains socket close by!
