Problem with broadband

Status - Not connected

Network name - ********
Connection to broadband router ✔️
Connection to internet  

 

this is what keeps happening while trying to use my  sky puck in both rooms, did all the basic checks! Turning off, router, pucks at wall! Tried restarting pucks by pressing button underneath along with turning off remote and pressing home button! 
This started off with my son not being able to play online with others while gaming, then  there was a possible outage and maintenance was showing on the Sky app, I don't have a Ethernet cable I'm all out of options other than contact Sky! Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated thanks in advance! R x

@REC3 
When there are broadband issues between midnight and 7am it could be essential overnight maintenance taking place. It is carried out at those times to minimise disruption and there is no advance warning provided.

See this pinned post at the top of the Broadband board from Sky which could be relevant any night this happens…

If you have an ONT box displaying a red light, see this further advice…

This link provides information about the coloured lights you may see on the various hubs

Hopefully it’s back up and running before 7am. If it’s not, try restarting your hub or post back in this thread and we can try to offer additional advice.

Re: Problem with broadband

Hi, thank you for responding to my thread. I have a engineer booked as it's still down. Was sent a new puck to try and see if that would work as it seems to just be the TV that isn't working.
