I recently got gig1 and the email that was given didn't receive a welcome email containing our account number and area number, not allowing us to activate the volt benefits and get the gig1 upgrade. Also the wifi has been going up and down from 2mbps to max 100mbps.
VM don't accept any speed test you do by your device...so I hear.
The hub is not that good plus your device might not be that good so your only option is to get a better router with 1Gb ports or 2.5Gb and put hub in modem mode like this cheap one.
and a cable
Thanks for the reply, my pc is the main priority for this wifi and i have got a 5ghz TP-Link booster plugged and with ethernet cable connected to my pc. I'm still waiting for the welcome email so I can activate the gig1 wifi but even after talking to support for 30 minutes still no email. I also checked and my pc's wifi card supports my wifi so theres no problems there. Just seems to be a problem with VM which they are saying "we will fix" but currently made no attempt.
Forum TeamHello Druupz,
Welcome to the Community, and thanks for taking the time to post here on the forums. I’m sorry to hear of the issues that you’re experiencing with your connection and not getting all the information that you need. I'd be happy to take a further look into this for you; however, I would need to confirm a few details via private message. Please look out for my message, and we can get started.
Kind Regards,

The 100Mbps is the rate at which your kit is drawing data over Wi-Fi. If you wish to see faster, get rid of the Wi-Fi & use a network cable from the PC direct to the Hub.

Ahh, the old "1Gb Wifi" strikes again. Good comments from the last 3 posters ...
