I've generally had a decent connection and good speeds over the last two or three weeks.
There have been a couple of occasions where the Hub seemed to reboot and was offline for some minutes.
The first of these was early one morning so I thought it may be a firmware update.
This morning all was fine until 9:00, and it's been wobbly ever since. No known issues in my area but I keep losing connection.
Did notice MTU was is to 1928, when the valid range appears to be 1280-1500
The network log is pasted below (timestamps are 2 hours out)

Hi @derek765,
Our systems are identifying a short-term network issue that could cause degradation or an intermittent service.
We believe it will only be a short-term issue and it will be fixed very soon. However, in the meantime, could you please check that the coax cables are connected securely to the Virgin Media equipment, any splitters (standard and powered) and to the wall socket?
Regards,
Daniel

Check for issues in your street via : 0800 561 0061 - as ever, someone has to be the first to report a fault.
The info from the Upstream / Downstream tabs is a good place to look for hints of connection issues.
MTU is 1500 on our Hub which the setting the Hub arrived with.

It's the router that's rebooting, so wireless or wired is irrelevant 🙂

The router hasn't rebooted since, although I'm still seeing warnings in the log. While it's working, I don't have the time to sit on a telephone call !

Cables etc. checked and all ok.
I updated MTU to 1500 yesterday and saved - its now back to 1978.
Entries in the log consistently up until around 00:10 (depending on the _actual_ time - now seem to have stopped. Perhaps something happened to fix overnight, or perhaps it's waiting to recur !
