Hi there @Andiemac 👋 Welcome back to our forum and thanks for your post 😊
Sorry to see you're having some issues with the Connect app 😔 Just to confirm, are you using any 3rd party devices in your set up or is the Hub on router mode?
Also have you been able to try rebooting the Hub then signing back into the Connect app to see if this helps?
Let us know, we'll be happy to help further if needed.
Regards
Nathan

Hi Andrea,
Thank you for advising the above, have you tried a pin reset and not a reboot, push a pin/ paper clip in the reset hole at the back of the Router, keep pushed in for a pull timed 1 minute, once done allow 15 minutes to settle.
Regards
Paul.

Thanks Paul,
it tried that and it made no difference, I am getting the same error message (attached). Please could my account details on file be checked? The o2 app also told me I was not the primary account holder so I wondering if I am somehow listed a secondary account holder and this is causing the problem. Thank you,
best wishes

Hi @Andiemac,
Thank you for expanding. Can you try logging out of the app and then logging back in again?
Thanks,

Check which WiFi service your mobile is using.
If it is connecting to "Virgin Media" i.e. the hot spot from a VM Hub, VM Connect will not be able to work.
The mobile needs to be connected to your Hub's VMxxxxxx WiFi service.

Hi
I have checked and my mobile is connecting to the VM wifi. I also logged out and back into the app. Unfortunately it has not made a diffference,
thanks and best wishes

Make sure that all forms of Apple Private Browsing / VPNs are disabled.
From your mobile you should be able to reach the Hub's menu at : http://192.168.0.1/
where you can login in with the Hub's password and manage the Hub's settings.
