Wifi pod whirring noise

One of my wifi pods is making a quite loud whirring noise.

The noise sounds like a fan is  running and is quite loud.

What can I do to resolve the problem?

Regards

 

Bill

    Please could a VM Mod have a look into this for me.

    It seems the only way to solve the problem is to swop the pod. I have very little luck  with Customer services so if a Mod could help me out I would be very appreciative. 

    Regards

    New pod was delivered and is now working silently.

    So thanks to the admin team . You do a great job, so much better than sitting on the end of a phone for hours getting nowheređź‘Ť 

    The one thing I have noticed is that when running the diagnostic tool on the router it says there's a problem 

    "

    Your home network has a few problems.

     

    Checking Broadband Service
     

     

    Checking Telephone Service

     

    Checking Ethernet Connections
     

     

    Checking WiFi Connections

    If you still think something is wrong, please check the following:

    1 The temperature of your Hub 5 is normal.
    2 Your broadband connection is working.
    3 Gateway IPv4 address is valid.
    4 Your broadband connection is ready.
    5 There may be devices in your wired network which might be limiting your in-home connectivity.
    6 The device has low signal strength, please move it closer to Hub 5.
    7 The device has low signal strength, please move it closer to Hub 5.
     
    Does anyone know what's happening
     
    Thanks
