Red light on router is continuously on

Hi, 

There has been a red light on the router (hub 3 M280) for about a week. The hub has been reset and did not resolve the problem.  There is an intermittent fault, as the wi-fi vanishes and then comes back. According to info  it is best to switch off the router when going to bed.  

I have done all these a number of times:

• Turn the power switch off on the back of the Hub.

• Ensure the Hub is upright, in a well-ventilated location, and, if at all possible, out of direct sunlight.

• Then use the power switch to turn the unit back on. The Hub should now operate normally.

I also read here that a continuous red light means the router needs to be replaced.  The single also needs to be strengthened at the back of the house and I think virgin offers an easy solution to this problem?
