I got my Smart Hub 7 Plus router today

Hi, I got my Smart Hub 7 Plus today and plugged it in and plugged the WAN in to my OpenReach Modem and it has just been flashing orange for about 30 minutes now, I set my payment and start date to today (9th of July) and I am just wondering whether it isn't working because it hasn't gone live yet, is there a specific time it goes live or is it past midnight earlier is when it goes live? I am quite tech savvy so it's nothing I'm doing wrong, Also I dunno if this is the forum section to ask but I also got my EE TV Box today and I plug it in and connect it to my Sky broadband which is still live and it won't show me any 'What's on Now' channels as it keeps saying no information is available and it shows 0 on channels found. I don't need to connect my tv cables the round ones do I? As I thought it would do it all through the wifi or is that not live either yet as they are both set for today to go live.

Thank you very much 🙂

EE gives you a 'go live' date when you sign up or soon after. When were you told it would go live? You usually receive the router a day or 2 before going live. So isn't it a bit too soon?

If your Sky BB is still live then your EE BB can't be.

The EE TV Box only works on EE BB, not Sky's.
