Sky Stream Puck will not connect to the internet

TP-Link BE550 router

Everything going well for 4 months then one day last week the puck would not connect to the internet.

Nothing had changed. Broadband and wifi available for everything else. Just the puck with the issue.

Sky sent a replacement puck but same issue exists i.e. puck connect to router but does NOT connect to the internet.

The same issue exsists when connected via ethernet cable also.

The router has been factory reset, and I have even tried an IoT service but alas, it will not connect to the internet.

Any pointers/things to try would be gratefully appreciated.

So for anyone looking for answers for similar issues -

Turns out it was DNS settings. After an update it seemed TP link decided to use their settings for DNS.

Changed to Cloudflare settings which solved the issue for me.
