Hub 5x Outage and Firmware Update

Further to previous posts

So my Internet only works in DMZ or wih a VPN

Without those on  Ive run a Ping Test for 5 Min

I get spike readings of up to 8000 on a ping Test but settles down to under 20 but seems to go above 500 every min or so

Then used another testing site and got this 

I had no issues until Outage last wednesday and then a firmware update

Virgin not helping say resolved but keep probing say relate to outage
