Re: Gaming Packet loss

BQM looks fine, however you have PostRS errors and these are normally caused by noise on the circuit.  You will need a VM technician to fix this.

In the meantime, check all connections are finger tight from the Hub to outside. Wait here a day or two for a VM Mod to pick this up or phone it in.

Re: Gaming Packet loss

Manged to get an engineer booked in for the 21st Feb.. lets see what happens as they state if this is my hardware at fault then they will charge me £25!
I've checked all cables and all seem fine so it has to be noise on the line like you say. Not my fault here. 😞

Lets see.

Re: Gaming Packet loss

Hi Molly_T,

 

Ok so the technician turned up changed all my cables reset the router and left me his mobile number.. still no change in game latency. I'm to call him in the morning and he said he will arrange for the new HUB4.0 replacement.

I received my bill today and I have been charged a call our charge of £25 - Why? he did see issues on the line and so he changed the cables inside and outside of my house, then tested afterword's and also attached an Attenuator to help the line fault,  so why am I being charged? and yet the issue is still not resolved hence me calling him again tomorrow.
Can you please look into this? I should not be charged for faults with your equipment!

Regards,

John

Re: Gaming Packet loss

HI jonnyel, 

 

I am sorry to hear you are still experiencing issues following the visit. 

 

I would need to check the account and also the latest bill but in order to do this I will just need to grab a few details via private message.

 

I will pop this over to you now and you should have access to the message via the purple envelope.

 

Speak soon,

 

Nat
