Ee router compatibility issue

Eugenedonaghy — Sun, 21 Apr 2024 19:36:43 GMT

Hello we have had openreach out to investigate broadband not working they have determined that there is a software issue with the router and BT equipment and think that the firmware/software of the router is too advanced for BT equipment. Need this sorted as I work from home and if no working wifi I have to travel an hour and a half into the office and an hour amd a half back home(no fun if on NMW)

Hi @Eugenedonaghy

Why can you not connect to WiFi.

Thanks

We can connect but are suffering from frequent disconnections with the hub showing the flashing orange light and this is no fun if working from home phone sometimes shows connected without Internet

Hi @Eugenedonaghy

Ok so when you say BT equipment you mean the exchange not anything you have in your property/router.

@Eugenedonaghy Which router do you have?

Does your EE service still include a phone service through the phone line or is it digital.

It sound more like a line fault, but Openreach cannot find it, so blame the router!

Have EE sent a new router?

It's a broadband/phone package deal the phe is connected to the hub
