EE fibre broadband activated but no router delivered!

My broadband has been activated, however I have not yet received my router. Assuming this is down to the postal strikes. This was sent last Wednesday, I’m surprised this was not anticipated and another courier used. I’m now left with no broadband for who knows how many days, working from home. 
Not a good start to my EE broadband experience.

How do you know it's been activated? Have you had a msg from EE that it's gone/going live? Was that for today? If so, it could be any time up to midnight & there's still time to receive the router in the post.

Have you another router you could use?

I had the activation email and my sky broadband has now been disconnected. Yes it was supposed to go live from the 3rd Oct.

It could be delivered today however going by the tracking updates I highly doubt it.

There's no tracking on Royal Mail deliveries.

It’s been sent Royal Mail tracked 48 and they have provided the tracking number.

OK!
