Broadband disconnects and speed issues

Question

I have been experience disconnects and speed problems for months. It has caused many problems from being unable to connect to meetings online to my kids experience disconnects while trying to do homework and gaming. I find it has become second nature to just switch the wifi off on my phone because the internet connection on wifi is constantly dropping or the page loading becomes unbearably slow. I have done the checks on the Virgin Media site and have rebooted the router many times.

I am hoping someone will be able to have a look at the logs from my router to see if there is are any obvious problem. Thank you for the help.

Stephen

Having Smart Wi-Fi enabled and having Wi-Fi Auto Channels enabled causes random dropouts for our Hub 3 because the Hub 3 is quite slow to change Wi-Fi channels.

Try with ... ( yes I have disabled Wi-Fi modes for kit that was made 15+ years ago )

Looks like it was a busy night on the error front. Maybe it was attempting a firmware update but failing. Perhaps try a 60 second pinhole reset of the hub.&nbsp;

stephjunco · Answer

Hi thanks for the reply. Yes, the broadband was down early in the morning because of work that Virgin was having done in my area. My alarm started beep loudly when it detected no phone services.&nbsp; I have taken your advice to reset the router once again but I am pretty doubtful that this will fix months of frustration.&nbsp;

Megan_L · Answer

Hi Stephjunco,&nbsp;
Thanks for your post, I am sorry you're having this issue with your broadband services recently.&nbsp;
I have had a look at your services on my side and can see there is an area outage, which is regarding a fault.&nbsp;
This is due to be fixed &nbsp;today -&nbsp;20:00 - but please be aware this is just an estimate, it could change depending on what the engineers find. However, I am sure they will be working incredibly hard to get this fixed as soon as possible for you.&nbsp;
I am sorry for any inconvenience or disruption this may be causing right now.
Thanks,&nbsp;
Meg
