Hi,
There has been a red light on the router (hub 3 M280) for about a week. The hub has been reset and did not resolve the problem. There is an intermittent fault, as the wi-fi vanishes and then comes back. According to info it is best to switch off the router when going to bed.
I have done all these a number of times:
• Turn the power switch off on the back of the Hub.
• Ensure the Hub is upright, in a well-ventilated location, and, if at all possible, out of direct sunlight.
• Then use the power switch to turn the unit back on. The Hub should now operate normally.
I also read here that a continuous red light means the router needs to be replaced. The single also needs to be strengthened at the back of the house and I think virgin offers an easy solution to this problem?

If the red LED persists after a pinhole reset, the Hub should be swapped out. This red LED is the overheat warning and should be working correctly. If you wait here a couple of days a VM Mod should pick this up and discuss directly with you.
