You've entered the wrong details

very strange, printed off details and copied to the letter, upper/lower case etc

dont need to enter " pppoa_username=************** "
should only enter actual user name right?

yeah username@skydsl

[edit] why not use copy+paste, less margin for error?

what is the defult username and password to get into the router?

sky one: admin and sky
Bt one: admin admin

HomeHub in theory is locked to BT Retail connections normally - so unless you've found a special unlock code you wont get it to work
