lol

At the time, did you try rebooting (or unplugging the power lead for over 10secs) as well... Or only did it just now?!

(Whatever, at least you're now back up running).

the core network has been affected by the recent floods

BT reported problems with the entire network starting on Friday and continuing throughout the weekend

Climate Change - will prob happen more often (flash flooding has increased in severity and frequency in the last 25 years)

Better late than never Yup mine also went down for many hours at around the same time. Assumed it was routine BT maintenance.
