Connection issues since Fibre Optic repair (Hub 5)

SuperhubUser
On our wavelength

Hi,

We accidentally cut the fibre optic cable in our house last week. Virgin sent out a tech the next day and it was repaired within 20 minutes. Since then though, we've been having some stability issues with our connection. Speed is fine - it hits +300mpbs but stability seems to be intermittent. I'm seeing some pages failing to load and game matches dropping out halfway through. I've tried a factory reset to no avail. 

The hub page diagnostics is showing red for WiFi Connections - might this just be an issue with my computer instead? I've also reinstalled my wifi adapter which hasn't made a difference. 

Here's the router status -

There is are noise issues on the 5 upstream channels, the modulation mode should be QAM 64.

What's the solution? Should I arrange a callout

What's your 3.1 upstream power level?

 

Downstream looks fine

It’s a Hub5, you do not get the 3.1 channels displayed.

Hi SuperhubUser, thanks for the message and welcome to the forums. 

I am sorry to hear that there is an issue and when looking at the connection I cannot see any outages. 

Can you confirm if this is still an issue for you and would you create a BQM here

Kind regards, Chris. 

Thanks Chris.

Network log is still showing a post RS error, I'm getting some jitters but speed is absolutely fine (300/30).

The Virgin website is giving me an opportunity to book an engi - should I go through with it?

 

The link has been blocked, would you be able to resubmit, You would always get a better result if you let it run over 24 hours. ^Chris.

I'll pop by again tomorrow to see what you think. 

Thanks 👍

Hi Chris,

Connection is mostly stable but there's still jitters and dropouts on occassion, some packet loss.
