Hi all,
I'm having some real frustrations with the Virgin Intelligent Wi-fi pods.
I'm on a gigabit connection, and can see that I'm getting the full 1Gb to the Hub 4 router (using https://samknows.com/realspeed/_ ) test
I ordered an initial Wi-fi pod, as my office is on the complete opposite end of the house, and getting a very poor wireless connection. I connected this pod via a Cat-6 cable directly to the router, and placed it in the hallway. The speeds upstairs were still not great, so I got in touch with the Technical team and ordered a 2nd pod.
I've also placed this pod in the same room (hall/stairs/landing), at the top of the stairs (approx 6/7m away from the first one). They don't have direct line of sight to each other, but are definitely close enough to maintain a solid mesh connection.
When standing next to the first pod and running SpeedTest on my phone, I get speeds of approx 500Mbps, which is great. However, when connecting directly to the second one, my speeds drop right down to 30Mbps.
Could there be a fault with this second pod, or any settings I can change/modify? I have channel optimisation set to 'on' and channels set to 'auto' for both 5ghz and 2.4ghz.
Any advice/support would be greatly appreciated.
