TalkTalk not working? Try this
TalkTalk provides fibre internet and DSL.
Find out whether TalkTalk knows about an outage at your address
- Sign in to the TalkTalk app on mobile data. Known outages for your address are shown on the first screen.
- Look at the report chart on this page. A sudden jump in the last hour means other TalkTalk customers are affected too.
- Ask a neighbour on TalkTalk, or check a second device, to see whether the problem is only yours.
Restart your TalkTalk Wi-Fi Hub the right way
- Unplug the power from your TalkTalk Wi-Fi Hub. Leave the fibre box on the wall (ONT) plugged in unless its lights are off or red.
- Wait a full 60 seconds so the equipment drops its old connection.
- Plug it back in and give it up to 10 minutes. On DSL, wait for the "DSL" or "broadband" light to stay solid.
- Still no sync? Plug the modem straight into the main phone socket without extension leads or splitters.
- Open the TalkTalk app and run its connection test. It can reset the line from the provider's side, which a power cycle cannot.
Work out whether it is the internet or just your Wi-Fi
- Connect a laptop to the router with a network cable. If the cable works and Wi-Fi does not, the provider is fine and the router or its position is the problem.
- Test more than one device. One failing device points to that device.
- Turn off any VPN and try again.

TalkTalk outage questions
Is TalkTalk down right now?
The status at the top of this page is updated every few minutes from automated checks of TalkTalk's systems and from visitor reports. Our checks reach TalkTalk's website and sign-in servers, so a local line or mast fault in one neighbourhood shows up first in the report chart rather than in the checks.
How do I check for a TalkTalk outage in my area?
Use the TalkTalk app, which shows faults for your own address or postcode. Then compare with the reports on this page to see whether other customers are affected.
Why is my TalkTalk internet slow but not down?
Slow speeds with a working connection usually come from Wi-Fi, not the line. Test with a cable first. If the wired speed is also far below your plan, there may be a fault on the line that has not become a full outage yet, so report it.
Does TalkTalk pay compensation for outages?
Ofcom runs an automatic compensation scheme for broadband and landline. If your provider has signed up and a fault is not fixed two full working days after you report it, you are paid a set daily amount without having to claim. Report the fault to TalkTalk as early as you can, because the clock starts from your report.
How long do TalkTalk outages usually last?
Most faults are cleared within a few hours. Damage to cables from storms or construction can take a day or more, because a crew has to repair the line by hand.
