Hub 4 broadcasting VM WiFi when in modem mode

[geedub]

Spoke to five different people on the phone about this tonight, only one of them was able to comprehend the problem but unfortunately didn't have the training to assist so put me through to billing to have the WiFi pods removed which I was advised was done but obviously hasn't fixed the issue.

I have the same issue as this thread and this one too. Wondering if any of the support team can assist with this please as I don't think I can handle phoning again.

Please can you confirm the colour of the LED ring on the hub? Have you tried a pin-hole reset and set up modem mode again?

[geedub]

Colour is white.

I've reset it using the pin hole for over 30 secs, the light flashed at around 30 secs and when it came back on it was in router mode again. I put it back into modem mode but VM SSID still showing. I've done this twice since phoning tonight and I did it yesterday as well.

Which firmware version is your hub running?  I had issues in modem mode with my hub 4 - mine was running :

: 01.02.065.21.EURO.PC20

There’s a newer version which my hub hadn’t received which supposedly addresses some of the modem mode issues:

AR01.04.055.06.07_040722_7245.PC20.10.LG.X1

 With the newer version the light ring turns green in modem mode.

Virgin sent an engineer as my hub wouldn’t update.  She replaced my hub 4 with a hub 5 last week - so far this has worked fine in modem mode.

It's running 01.02.065.21.EURO.PC20.

Yep, firmware is out of date, your best bet is to wait for a VM staff member to get to your post in a day or two.

Virgin Media engineer visited and replaced the router which appears to have resolved the issue.
