Packet loss

Hi, I'm having a constant packet loss registered on my BQM:

It's been going like that for quite some time. The router is in the modem mode and it was fine for some time before the issue appeared. Could you please look into it? Thank you!

  • Last week I received a replacement Hub 5 and it seemed to have improved the situation. However, small packet loss still remains.

    Are there any issues remaining that the replacement hasn't fixed?  Posting stats below (can't paste proper tables now for some reason, sorry about that). Thank you.

    Upstream is poor, the Channels should all be 64QAM.  Most likely noise in the circuit.

      And they don't need the  full diagnostics tests of router mode to know this is a problem

    You will need to use Router mode when VM have picked this thread up.  Until then, I wouldn't worry. The stats will not change between modes but VM can't run their "full" tests and diagnostics in modem mode.   You can post your DS, US and Network log for comment at any time.  Copy and paste as screenshots are hard to make out sometimes.

      For some reason I couldn’t access the router settings through 192.168.0.1. Is because it is in the modem mode? This used to work before but now the page is just not loading.

        Hi bel-akor thanks for posting and welcome back to our community.

        Sorry to hear you're having package loss. And for any inconvenience this may be causing. So that I can take a look on your behalf, I'm going to send you a private message. Please keep an eye on your inbox in the top right of your screen.

      I'm willing to bet there full diagnostics test show nothing.

  • Shall I put it in the router mode, run it for some time (overnight?) and then post stats? The hub is not usable in a permanent router mode as it has no coverage.

  • Adduxi's avatar

    VM will not diagnose Hub's in modem mode.  They will insist the Hub is set to Router mode.

  • Check for local faults on 0800 561 0061 / 150. 

    Post your hub stats here from 192.168.0.1
