can connect to my virgin media

i can connect to virgin media but not to my virgin media for some reason it works fine on my mobile and i can connect to all other web sites it states that virgin media have closed the connection ive tried all other things like rebooting hub and laptop ive cleaned the cache and everything else is it the hub or my laptop thanks for any help

  • Hello whichever

    Sorry to hear of the connection issues, we appreciate you raising this via the forums.

    Just to confirm, is it the online account you're struggling to connect to using your home connection but is fine when using mobile data. Is the 'Virgin Media have closed the connection' the only error you get?

    Do you have another device you can use via your home network to see if this is due to the network or the device? Are you running any VPN's on the laptop and does turning these off help resolve the issue?

      I just would like you all to know that unfortunately I have tried everything to resolve this issue of not being able to access my virgin media and now I cannot get Google on my laptop so I really don't know what else I can do

        Thanks for coming back to us whichever.

        The hub does appear to be online, with a solid connection so far today and for most of yesterday also.

        How are things looking this morning? 

        Are you only using the two devices on the connection?

        How does the laptop work when connected via an Ethernet cable?

        Thanks,
