Hub 3.0 solid red light

I am a relatively new customer. hub 3.0 was installed less than 2 months ago. 

I am continuously having to restart the hub due to connection issues. 

The light on the front is solid red. I have read this is due to over heating, but the hub is on top of a unit, plenty of space/air. I have tried resetting it, leaving it unplugged for a couple of hours but it is the same. 

Is this a faulty hub? Its driving me mad having to restart every day

It is a “false positive” indication, but it does look like there are other issues.

Hi Runningcat76

Welcome to the community. 

Sorry to hear you're currently having issues with your connections. I have taken a look at our side and cannot see any issues that might be causing this. 

Regarding the red light on the router though, we'll need an engineer to swap out the router. Please join me on private message so I can locate your account and pass account security. You can see your private messages at the top of the page, in the envelope icon.
