BT cables missing?, no broadband.

I've received the package containing the modern and Hub.  The package contained 2 boxes with  ethernet cables (yellow and red tipped) and power units for modern and Hub.

I've also received a text message saying the Broadband has been switched on. 

The problem is there is no cable to connect the modern to the telephone socket. 

Does that get sent out separately?

I live in a new build who has been wired  by BT.

Re: BT cables missing?, no broadband.

If it is new build is it also FTTP that has been supplied? Is there anything like this in the property?

Then you need to connect the home hub as shown below, and it should work, provided there is power on the Openreach box. That power unit supplied for the modem, may be needed.

As @Keith_Beddoe  has shown above you don't connect to the telephone socket for FTTP. You connect to the ONT.
