BT won't connect our tenant

HI - hoping someone can help.  My husband & I rent out the flat my husband used to live in before we met.  He had a landline in there that was supplied by NTL as was.  A new tenant has just moved in to the flat & he works from home a lot and is tied into an agreement with BT, so needs them to connect him at the flat.  They were there today and told him they couldn't do it as there was another provider still on the line. 
Our agent contacted some of the previous tenants who all said they'd used mobile phones only, but we know that one of them must have installed cable or something as there is a big black wire coming in to where the TV is that wasn't installed when my husband lived there.
BT won't tell the new tenant who the other provider is.  Their suggestion is charging the new tenant over £100 to install another line. We phoned Virgin Media who confirmed that my husband's NTL account was cancelled when he moved out over 3 years ago. 
Does anyone have any idea how we can get the line released so our tenant can get a phone & broadband asap?
Thanks in advance!

  • MacBook and husband's iPhone won't connect to home Wifi, but my iPhone and iPad will.

    As of this week, our home Wifi won't connect our MacBook (2008) or my husband's iPhone 4 to our home Internet.  Our iPad 2 and my iPhone 4 still connect no problem.  We appear to get the signal, but get error messages about not connecting to the Internet with browsers.
    We've tried turning things off and on, forgetting and re-adding networks, and copying info from my phone to his, but have all been unsuccessful.
    We share our Internet with our neighbor and nothing has changed with that.  We asked her to turn off/on the router and/or modem with no change.
    The ONLY difference I can think of is my husband started his last semester at school this week and he uses both devices on campus.  He has to use his campus ID and password to get on campus Wifi so he doesn't change any settings, but I feel like its all leading back to that.
    Any help would be much appreciated!  Thank you!!!

    Forgetting the Network didn't work.  It's dong the same thing.
    So if it's a router problem, what can we do?
    Two devices work, and two don't...I just don't understand why.
    Could it be that too many people have logged into our wireless and now it's out of IP's? Could we ask people who have previously logged into our internet to delete it completely? I don't know if that would free anything up?

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indiacte a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router

  • My iPhone 4 won't connect to our WiFi at home, but will at other WiFi spots.  However, my parent's iPhones work and connect just fine at home using WiFi.  I have called and talked to several people and no one seems to be able to help me.

    The two things to try first are renewing your network lease, forgetting the network and if that doesn't work to reset all networks. You might have tried one of these but I'll repeat the steps just to make sure.
    Settings > Wi-Fi > tap the blue arrow to the right of your network name > Renew Lease
    If that doesn't work then
    Settings > Wi-Fi > tap the blue arrow to the right of your network name > Forget this Network
    If that doesn't work
    Settings > General > Networks > Reset All Networks > then reset your iPhone by
    Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart.
    I hope one of these will help.

  • Trying to connect our exercise bike to our wireless network.  It sees the network, but once pass phrase is put in, it won't connect.  Any suggestions?  We have an Airport Extreme.

    I am trying to connect our exercise bike to our wireless network.  It sees the network, but once pass phrase is put in, it won't connect.  Their tech support said the problem is with the router and we may need to open ports 80, 443 and 4348.  We have an AirPort Extreme and I scanned for open ports and found 80 already open but the others are not.  Tried using Port Mapping, putting the port number 443 in both the Public UDP and TCP fields and the Private UDP and TCP fields also.  The Private IP address defaulted to 10.0.1.201 which is right outside of the DHCP range.  Will this be the IP of the bike or should I change it to something else?  Are the values I put in the fields totally wrong?  Bike is still not connecting.  Thanks for any help!

  • We recently switched ISPs. To connect to the new ISP our Airport Extreme has to be in bridge mode. Now our Nintendo Wii won't connect to the Airport. Is it an issue with bridge mode that is causing this?

    We recently switched ISPs. To connect to the new ISP our Airport Extreme has to be in bridge mode. Now our Nintendo Wii won't connect to the Airport. Is it an issue with bridge mode that is causing this? We're running two Macs wirelessly with no problems.  And the Wii did connect before the switch.

    Hello and thanks for the reply.  I gave this a try, turned off Airport on one of the computers and tried the Wii again.  Still no connection.  I should say that we're also running an old G4 (wired) off the Airport as well, with no problems.  I've tried many things to make the Wii to work, including power cycling the Airport, turning off the security settings in the Airport, resetting the Airport to it's default and redoing the network, resetting the network setting on the Wii (several times), moved the Airport closer to the Wii, all with no luck.  The Wii "sees" the Airport but won't connect to it.  I'm at a loss for anything else to try, so any help is appreciated.

  • Two of our ipod touches won't connect to the home wifi.  They have done before. All other apple devices connect fine.  They can see the wifi devices, appear to try to connect (the circle whirls around) but connection doesn't complete.  Ideas?

    Two of our ipod touches won't connect to the home wifi.  They have done before. All other apple devices connect fine.  They can see the wifi devices, appear to try to connect (the circle whirls around) but connection doesn't complete.  Ideas please?

    I have 2 of them that only connected for a day and then reset network settings and they connected again for a day now resetting network settings does not fix it either. My iphone used to work with my home network but after upgrading to the latest OS which is the same versions as the ipods it no longer works either. Acts the same as the ipods. It would seem that the latest tweeks to the OS is the problem with wifi connectivity.

  • My husband has a Mac mini, vintage 2009, running Snow Leopard. All other computers and devices in the house are able to connect to our wireless network, but since I upgraded his computer to Snow Leaopard  it won't connect. What is the problem?

    Power off and then back on the router
    What happens when you enter the network's PW?
    Try forgetting/deleting the network if necessary. To do that go to System Preferences>Network>wifi>Advanced and select the network and click on the minus sign

  • My iPod Touch 2nd generation won't connect to the Internet

    After restoring my iPod Touch 2nd gen to factory settings because that's what iTunes advised me to do after doing the iTunes update a week ago, my iPod won't connect to the internet anymore. I was able to connect to our wifi but it won't go to any website, to iTunes, etc. I'm 100% sure the problem isn't our wifi because I'm using it right now with my laptop so it's not the wireless problem. Before restoring my iPod to factory settings iti has always worked and I never had a problem connecting it. I tried restoring it again but it still didn't work. I already also reset our router but still no luck. I wish someone could help me asap!! Thank you.

    You can try:
    - reset:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • IPod 5th Generation won't connect to home wifi?

    I've had this iPod since this summer and suddenly it disconnected from my home wifi and hasn't connected for two days now. Yes, it will connect to wifi everywhere else such as school. Although, when I come home it fails to connect to our wifi.
    I know it isn't a problem with our wifi since all the computers are still connected (along with other Apple products such as Macs and iPhones).
    It's only my iPod that won't connect.
    Every time I try to connect it says that I have failed with the password and that it's unable to connect. I have tried resetting all settings and also tried resetting my network settings...
    Any other ideas? My iPod is version 8.1
