Hi All,

I've been having issues now with VM for well over a month, i have had an engineer come and swap out the old series three router with a new one after a new splitter and the coax cable terminations were cleaned up. Today I have this error on my router below. Where downstream pre and post are very high again. Can anyone advise what the issue is?

Wow, you have a super noisy line there.

Virgin will need to investigate, but just make sure the cable is connected tightly and reboot it.

There is little else you can do.

Hi, that’s exactly what I thought but it’s the second time this has happened in as many months, it has been rock solid for years and notice a correlation between wet weather. Thanks for your feedback and I will report online.
