    Too many PostRS errors on your Downstream channels.  Could be indicative of "noise" ingress on the circuit.  One for VM tech to check and fix.  A good circuit should have zero, or close to, PostRS errors.

      Thank you for this information. To best look into this, we are sending you a private message. Please keep an eye out for an envelope at the top right corner of your Forum page. Let me know if you have any issues locating this.

      Thanks,

  • Hi Sharpey​ 

    Thanks for posting and welcome back to the community. 

    Sorry to hear of any Broadband issues. We've ran a check today and no area issues or outages are showing so we do hope everything has been fixed since your post.

    If not, the first thing to do is check our service status page - https://virg.in/servicechecker pop your postcode in and the surname of the account holder. Any issues will be shown, and you can even run a fault diagnostic on your equipment. 

    If it's just a WiFi issue, please download the Connect App - https://virg.in/connectapp when downloaded, you'll be able to do a wireless scan in the property in every room. This will optimise the connection where possible to do so. If a Pod is needed, you'll be prompted to order.

     

    Keep us posted.

      The issue is a firmware update that broke our routers that Virgin refuse to acknowledge or roll back.
