BT blames 'faulty router' for mega outage. Did they try turning it off and on again?

Our router/modems were being assigned addresses in the 172.16.0.0/12 subnet on their WAN interfaces, for a few hours, then suddenly they were assigned proper BT external addresses, and away we went.

Somebody activated the CG NAT too soon?
