@JessChilton 

Have you a question?

 

edit: I see you posted on the outage thread in the Newport area overnight. If your broadband still isn’t working and you haven’t done it yet use this link to check to see if there are still any broadband problems or outages nearby.

This should determine if there's an identified fault, perhaps affecting multiple households.

If there aren't any then try running the line test here
https://www.sky.com/help/articles/broadband-diagnostic-start
You can also run the test via the MySky app on a mobile data connection.

Once completed, if it reports back that all is good click on 'broadband' to run an updated test. If you get amber or red you need to follow the on-screen instructions.

If you’re still having problems you may need to contact Sky to report it. The easiest way is to dial 150 free from your Sky Talk landline if it’s still working.

This link providers information about the coloured lights on the various hubs

Sky broadband being discussed here is a domestic service and whilst it's fine for those customers working from home to use it, they won't receive additional or quicker support.

@JessChilton highly unlikely an issue within Sky's network far more likely an issue in the Openreach connection which will get fixed how fast depends on what has failed or been damaged.

 

Sorry to break it to you but Virgin Media's netwok suffers occasional failures just like Openreach's.
