Hi everyone,
Since I've signed up for Virgin M350, it was fast for maybe a month, then the speed was never higher than 230Mbps connected via ethernet cable, usually 80Mbps. But for last two days it got even worse. Since yesterday I can't open most .com sites and many others, google de works fine, but google com is not loading. Checked on 2 different pc via ethernet cable, 2 mobiles via wi-fi. It's not loading on any. Due to same problem I can't sign in to my virgin account, virgin site is loading but when trying to sign in nothing happens. I phoned 150, done all that advisor wanted me to, then he hang up, but the problem is still not solved. I've checked all the drivers, restarted hub, pc, checked for malware, every advice I could find, I tried it. But I have no knowledge how to fix it. Also weird thing, my hub is showing sometimes my wi-fi devices (I've got some wi-fi plugs and thermometers ) as cable devices, I don't know if it's a part of the problem or not.
Any idea what else I can do?
I was trying to copy here my hub network log but it shows me to correct highlighted errors.
That's from Wednesday to Saturday.

Post your upstream and downstream stats.
Try a 30 second pinhole reset of the hub with no ethernet connection.
Once done make sure no vpn is enabled and check whether VM child safe is on. Try different browsers and using incognito browsing.

Thanks, I've done 30s reset without any ethernet cable in. No VPN, no child protection, 3 different browsers, incognito, 2 pc, ethernet and mobile all same, not able to reach google com. For example reddit even if starting to load is just half done and can't be browsed. I'm not sure why some pages load successfully and some not. still can't sign in to virgin media account.

Hub stats look okay to me.
on 09-07-2022 22:55
I'm just a pc user, zero knowledge about network etc, so I hope I've done it correctly, I've changed DNS in Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPc4), tried both 194.168.4.123 and 194.168.8.123. But still same. google com and lot other websites are unreachable. some are working just fine.
Virgin was having some local maintenance on Friday, but they said it's all done and everything is fine on their side. Maybe I should just wait until Monday, maybe it isn't fixed on their side.

Hi eterna,
Thanks for your post and welcome to the Forums. It's great having you on board with us although we are sorry to hear you're having an issue with your services.
Taking a look at things this end, our diagnostics on your home network and Hub have not found any issues that could account for issues you're seeing. There are no open faults or maintenance ongoing in your area either.
I can see there is a very large number of devices connected to the hub and that you're using a third party device to be able to connect more devices.
Can you please remove the ethernet cables, and turn the hub off, one off reconnect 1 ethernet cable and plug the other end directly in to a PC that's been set up in safe mode with networking. Turn the hub back on and check to see how the connection is then.
It's also worth making sure you get a new ethernet cable as the ones you currently have are 100mb cables. You should have a minimum of of a Cat 6 cable for the package you are on.
Keep us posted on how things go.
Thanks,

Thank you for all the replies and help. Problem solved. Apparently it was the ongoing maintenance, as on Sunday 9pm sharp everything went back to normal, no more dropped packets. Monday morning I received an email that they finished essential works on the network and I can hop back online.
Once again thanks to everyone
