Re: Sky broadband persistent issues
The white unit appears to be a Hive Hub (or something similar)
It's not an Openreach ONT.

Re: Sky broadband persistent issues
So what is the Sky Hub actually connected to?

Re: Sky broadband persistent issues
Unfortunately without being able to see whether the Hub connects into a wall socket or an ONT it's trickier to tell what's going on.

Re: Sky broadband persistent issues
As @TimmyBGood has already pointed out, you are sharing pictures of the Sky Hub and a random white device, much like a Hive Home Hub.
That is not the box on the wall called an ONT which is the Openreach device that your Sky Hub should be plugged into. You can see what an ONT looks like here.
Have you restarted that device? What lights does it have? Can you share a picture of that device?

Re: Sky broadband persistent issues
HI Steve,
The lights for internet is still amber blinking . The voice light is also blinking. As per sky tech team, there is not open reach outage declared.
An engineer has been dispatched. BUt this has not been a good experience for last 3 weeks after the broadband upgrade.
I will upload the latest pics shortly.
