No Internet

Mishmosh1
On our wavelength

We’ve recently just had our router installed but we’re getting what we expected. 

Our Internet shows up as connectable but when we connect a device, the internet disappears. We also have an access denied message on the router (19.168.0.1) on the control panel. 

It doesn’t matter what device I use on the router, nothing seems to stay connected. It always disconnects. 

Devices we’ve tried to connect are:

Playstation 5, Xbox Series X, laptop, Smart TVs, Nintendo Switch & Apple iPhones. 

Things we’ve tried:

  • We have tried resetting the router
  • Restarting the router. 
  • Unplugging the power supply and turning it back on. 
  • Flicking off the switch on the router and turning it back on. 
  • Separating the 2.4Ghz & 5Ghz bands. 
    We have also checked the coax cables, they’re firmly fitted.

Try this order for setting it up!

1. Navigate to 192.168.0.1
2. Log in to the Hub
3. Go to 'Modem mode' (on the left) and put the hub into modem mode
4. Wait until the bottom light on the Hub turns magenta / red (HUB 3) (can take about 5 minutes)
5. Turn off the Hub
6. Power on and set up your new router as per the manufacturers instructions
7. Plug an ethernet cable (usually supplied with the new router) from port 1 on the Hub into the WAN (usually blue) socket on the new Router
8. Power on the Hub and wait about 5-10 minutes until it stabilises - You should have internet!

Sadly it didn’t work. I ended up speaking on the VirginMedia live chat and will be having a mechanic sent out for Friday. Thanks for assisting in trying to solve this issue. It’s appreciated. 

Keep us posted!
