All new setup

Hi All,

Im new to VM and looking to get BB and TV moving from SKY.  At the moment me SKY TV box connects to my router via WIFI.  The new setup will be fibre to the house, fibre from inside the house to the router but does the TV360 box need a hardwired connection or can it connect via WIFI?

Thanks

  • My understanding is that Sky is generally better at TV than VM. 

    You will need to double check if the connection is Xgs-pon (Hub 5x, max 2 Gbps). If so you can only get Flex (see below). If it is a traditional Docsis connection (max 1 Gbps) then you have more choice. 

    That being said the 360 box uses a cable connection https://assets.virginmedia.com/resources/pdf/TV360.pdf

    If you want a wifi box VM does Flex but it only streams and doesn't record. https://www.virginmedia.com/the-edit/tv/flex
