Hi, Hopefully someone might be able to help.
I joined BT last weds with a full fibre connection, but since the install, the hub has had a solid orange light.
The ONT has green lights. I've contacted BT and had a visit from a "home tech"? guy, who said everything was connected properly, he tried a different router with same issue.
I've had an openreach engineer booked for the 3rd.
The fault tracker now shows "you've told us that it's fixed", is this normal?
and, can I explore any other options in the meantime?
many thanks.

Although, would have expected the Tech person to have tried all the simple tricks of resetting hubs etc.
If still not working, then BT could send you out a mini 4g Hub that you can use to get connected to Internet whilst issues solved, as mentioned in third link above.
If you gone BT Halo+ you should already have had a mobile hub for backup broadband connection anyway.
Call the the FTTP Team on 08005874787 and inform them of the problem. It may be that your broadband is not registered/activated correctly.
If you find that your call is transferred to the "normal" Customer Service Dept call back until you get through to the FTTP Team.
Hi @ec77 and weldome to our community.
Thanks for posting about your connection problems. @infinitywaiter has posted some great advice (thanks for that) but your best bet would be to contact the number posted by @gg30340 . The FTTP guys should be able to get this sorted for you.
Cheers
David
