Cable to DSL ended up with chaos and No Internet


Hi

I recently requested to change my Cable Internet to DSL but it brings No Internet and chaos. 

I raised this request on 23rd Feb 2024, this was 250Mbps DSL line and the activation was supposed to happen on 8th March 2024. On 8th march 2024 I came to know that activation was not successful due to speed limit. Even though O2 website shows 250Mbps is possible for my address. 

I raised another request on 8th March 2024, this time it was 100Mbps DSL line. Now this was supposed to activate on 25th March 2024 where Deutsche Telekom Technician visiting on 25th March. The Technician arrived and he tried to provide the connection and ended up with No Connection where he said there is some issue with my line. This needs to be fixed by House Owner then they can provide the new DSL connection. So I requested my House owner for the same. In the meantime my cable internet has been deactivated on 29th March 2024 Morning and stating my DSL connection is activated. But I do not have any active DSL connection to my house. Now with no internet and no support to fix the existing cable connection. Not sure how this can be sorted. I need O2 to help asap.

@reacharts I just wanted to make sure that a suitable router was being used. We have had people who wanted to use an ADSL only router and were surprised or complained that they were not getting (V)DSL sync.

Hello @reacharts,

welcome to our o2 Community 😀

Unfortunately, I don't know much about your router and I only know many users here in the community who had problems with this router model. Do you happen to have the opportunity to test a different router on the connection?

If the DSL line in the house has been repaired by your landlord meanwhile, please contact our English hotline and report the outage so that the line can be checked again by a technician. You can reach the English hotline on 089-666630081 (Mon. - Fri. 8 am - 8 pm, Sat. 10 am - 6 pm, on workdays)

Best regards

Giulia

Hello @o2_Giulia, yes I understand that I can connect with English hotline number but I am with no Internet due to the long holiday from yesterday. What should be the next step? Can I get a resolution for the time period?

@reacharts,

that is unfortunate, that the DSL line in your house is not working right now.

If you have a mobile plan you can create a hotspot, how to do this you can see in our instructions if you translate that page into english.

Best Regards,

Gerrit

Guys, this is insane. Then Why would I pay extra for home internet if I have mobile plan. And who is going to pay for the data used in mobile. This I didn’t expect from an organised customer care.

@reacharts Did you have an o2 mobile contract? If yes, the hotline can you book a free 200GB data package as long your VDSL is not working.

I have another socket at home and fortunately it’s connected. When I tried with the credentials it’s working.
