Many thanks for your replies. However I do not seem able to sign in to router as seem to have forgotten password - I tried all my usual passwords. Could it be still on the default whatever that is?
I have also noticed something else. In my list of possible networks I get a new option with a max signal strength. It just says Virgin Media! If I attempt to sign in it has several fields requiring completion; PEAP Identity, Password, Select CA certificate,and MAC address type. It is not a neighbours as nearest neighbours on VM have similar Network names to mine (VM followed by 7 numbers) and whilst seen are much lower signal strength. Any Ideas where this is from. Could try turning Hub off and see if it disappears but other half is on virtually continuous Zoom, or other video calls this afternoon.
The password for teh hub is on a sticker on the bottom of the hub - there are two there - the settings password and the wifi password - you need the settings one.
The Virgin Media SSID is the VM hotspot - it uses a completely separate connection back to the VM network than your own and is kept completely separate to your LAN etc.. You can disable it somewhere in My Virgin Media, though based on the posts around here, disabling it doesn't always work..
