Sorry to add another post as I can see this has been discussed many times before. However I am at my wits end with trying to get VM to acknowledge and rectify my issue so posting here seems to be the only way to proceed.
Over the last 3 months my Hub3 has a solid red light and is intermittently dropping connection. I understand this could be overheating. It is quite warm to touch but not what I would class as overly or dangerously hot.
I have called customer services multiple times over the last few months and been through the standard script of resetting the hub every time. When I try to explain this hasn’t cured it I get fobbed off by saying the connection will be monitored. Never hear anything back!
This morning it has started dropping connection regularly every minute or so.
is there anything I can do (keywords to say maybe) to get customer service to take this seriously and send a new hub out to me?

Hey Nathan81, thank you for reaching out and a warm welcome to the community I am so sorry to hear this.
I am going to send you a PM but please do try these steps in the meanwhile;
• 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.

FI... How was this resolved for you. Did VM swap the Hub? To what model ? If a Hub3 - has that cured the intermittent dropping out ?

how many of us now have this issue and rely on the forum team for help. I too have had this same issue with the same results when you talk to the support team on the phone. I am now asking for help from the forum team.

I have a technician booked to come and replace the Hub3 on Monday. Will report back once this is done. 👍
