With social distancing can't really ask a neighbor to check . Just saying how stupid it is to phone go though all fuss of press this and that to get message that BB it's not working ! THEN to be told to report on web site. How did they come up with that!

What i'd do in this situation is to phone and ask a neighbour (with wifi that I could receive) to either let me have their password (either a temporary one or they could change the existing one after i'd finished if they had any concerns) or to temporarily take it off until i'd finished.
A friend is lucky in that he lives near to a factory that has an open wifi connection.
