Book another engineer visit? FAO Mods

Tuning in

My internet connection keeps dropping and having ran the online test it appears that I have interference on my line. An engineer visited today and I was told the issue was fixed. However, I am still having the same issue. 

Is it possible to book an engineer online? Getting through to Virgin media on the phone is very difficult, I have already had to book a day off work for an engineer visit. Is it not possible they can come at weekends or after 6pm? I have had poor internet service for over a week now, I will be cancelling my contract if this cannot be resolved asap.

Can you post your Hub status and logs?
Someone should be spot if there is a problem
Navigate to http://192.168.0.1 (or http://192.168.100.1 - if in modem mode)
Don't log in!
Click on 'router status'
Copy/paste the data from each of the tabs. The forum software will remove the MAC addresses for you (you may need to click the 'post' button again).

Also, set up a 'Broadband Quality Monitor'. This will monitor the state of your connection and record any network dropouts etc - You can do this at ThinkBroadband (https://www.thinkbroadband.com/broadband/monitoring/quality)
Give it a while to gather data and then click 'Share Live graph' and paste the 'Direct Link' into the forum!

This will help diagnose any issues!

Also, have you checked first for “known network faults”

As well as trying the “check service,” Area status webpage" (link at top right of this forum), also try the “free & automated” Service Status number - 0800 561 0061 - which usually gives the most up to date info. and tells you of more local issues down to postcode level.

Hi, 

Thanks for your response.

I can't seem to get my modem logs using that URL sorry.

Post up the Hub data as requested.

Have you actually got NO network connectivity - the "wall of red" BQM may be happening for "other" reasons.

Hi, 

Thanks for replying. An engineer visited today and changed a few things, he was very good but unfortunately I am still experiencing the same problems.

Below is my modem log:

I am sorry about that @jamessheffield.

 

I did locate your account using your forums details and I can see he has changed your inline isolator? 

 

As this was today please allow some time for this to recover, I would let it have 24hours before we send anyone out again as we need to give it some time to see if it does start working with the replacement that has been made.

 

Many thanks,

Hayley
