Hi how do I order the Wi-Fi pods as can’t get the connect app to work?
Hi all, I noticed for the first time today that the usual virgin media WiFi network isn't there on the tube. Is this being phased out? [MOD EDIT: Please see update on post 111 here]
UNDERSTANDING KEY ASPECTS OF WiFi WiFi is a somewhat notorious, though essential commodity. In many cases, when its behaviour does not meet the user’s perception of the claims made by the ISP (e.g. Virgin Media), the blame is quickly heaped on the IS...
Seeing so many posts about Good, Bad & ugly Wifi, I thought I would post some suggestions for people out there. There are definitely good, midrange & poor routers with quite variable performance wifi. Never expect a mass market product to be the b...

Hi all,Am having no end of trouble trying to get something useful out of customer services, cause you know, it’s not a problem with where my router is, so why would I be having issues…? Thought I’d try here as people seem to have had some success wit...
@Lee_R and @Daniel_Et - I'm experiencing the same constant red light issue that started a few weeks back, although broadband has been running ok recently (apart from a wider outage a couple of weeks ago). Also been through all the troubleshooting ste...
Hello, please help me. Internet started flashing green so I ordered engineer who came this Monday and said he can't fix the issue as the cables are in something he called IRS box that belongs to a different company. He said, however it is virgin's re...
Hello,I'm new to VM and have only been on their 500/500 package for about a week now. Anything that's a wired connection is rock solid and doesn't disconnect but anything connected to WiFi is constantly dropping out but randomly. For example my Sam...
I'm using M250 Virgin media broadband and it is ok for media consumption (e.g. YouTube/Netflix), but it has been unusable for either video calls or games. Both Video calls and games get random freezes. I suspected it was latency spikes and set up BQM...
