I tried the factory reset. Had to also turn off/On before WiFi would begin broadcasting again. I now (still) have an access point that my devices can see but fail to access up address, with the added bonus that I am now no longer password protected, so will have to reset that if I ever get things working again.

I have a virgin media hub 3.0 connected via ethernet cable to an online plug on my ground floor, 2 floors up I have the wac120 connected via Ethernet cable to the pair of the plug and have used this to enable WiFi in my attic bedroom.
