Eircom Wifi Hub Connection Problem

    Is anyone else having difficulty connecting to the eircom Wifi hub network -

    I've got eMobile broadband - one of the reasons I got it was that it comes with free access to the Wifi Hub networks, this all worked fine until about 2 weeks ago - I was using my Mac - Its was the one At AIB Blanchardstown which I had used the previous day with out problems and it just kept saying limited or no connectibilty - it doesn't even allow me to open the eircom home page to input my log in details - I tried deleting the Wifi network from my wifi, rebooting the computer and attempting to connect again with no success
    I also tried one of the other hotspots at Blanchardstown but still coudn't connect, Just to make sure its was the computer that was the problem I attempted to connect to the Blanch library wifi which was fine, I can also connect to other wifi networks no problems - I even use an E5 eMobile wireless hub - the computer connects just fine.
    I then thought that it might just be a problems with using my Mac so I also have an HTC phone and a Samsung tablet - I attempted to connect with both of these with no success - its goes as far as connected and obtaining an IP address and then disconnects, I've also tried connecting my phone and tablet to other (non-eircom) wireless networks and they connect without problem. (I also tried connecting to Hotspots in Dublin city centre but get the same result).
    Does anyone know if there has been a change in software or something, I looked on the website but all the tutorial videos about fixing problems ask what windows operating system I'm using which as I'm using a Mac doesn't apply.
    Has anyone experienced a similar problem. Thx

    On a more technical note I'm using
    Mac OS X 10.7.4
    HTC android - fully uptodate
    Samsung Galaxy Tab - fully uptodate

    Just wait a week or so and it should be sorted out.
