F Broadband light is red

Broadband is active, but your Hub can’t connect to it.

1Check broadband service status by calling 0800 169 0199. If service is okay, restart your Hub by pressing and releasing the Restart button on the side of the Hub.

2Wait a couple of minutes until the Broadband light glows blue and open your web browser on your computer to check you’re connected to the internet.

3If the Broadband light is still red, try resetting the Hub’s default settings – see page 51.

4If the Broadband light is still red, please call us on 0800 111 4567.

Note: if you aren’t a BT Total Broadband customer, a red Broadband light on your Hub could mean your ‘connection’ username and password aren’t configured correctly in your Hub Manager. Check the instructions supplied by your Internet Service Provider for more details. To find out how to access your Hub Manager, see page 53.
