Wi-Fi Keeps Disconnecting with Hub5

pommy2023
Joining in

Evening all, 

I hope someone can help please. We got VM 1Gig broadband installed last month and we received a Hub 5. Ever since it’s keeps disconnecting periodically. At first it seemed to be every night around 9.30pm and thought it must be the area we are in and thought I would monitor it but soon it began doing it more randomly and it’s now at the point where it’s becoming annoying dropping for around a couple of mins each time. 

Looking on this forum it seems to be a Hub 5 issue so I’ve attached some logs similar to what has been asked in previous threads. 

How can this be resolved? Is it an easy fix? 

Thanks in advance 🙂

I’ve had mine for a couple of months now, it happens daily up to 11 times per day, am always told it’s been fixed and within a hour or two it disconnects again.

it’s forced my wife to now lose her job (worked from home) and has forced costs up for others in the shared accommodation as they also can no longer work from home, virgin seems to think it’s perfectly fine, no compensation nothing, if you can try to get out of the contract and go with another company

Post up 3 FULL sets of data onto here – 2 tables from the Downstream, 2 from the Upstream, & the Network Logs pages. Don't worry too much about the formatting it can be easily read & DON’T include personal data or MAC addresses - blank them out - if you copy/paste the data, the board software will do this for you (you may need to click the "submit" button again). If character limits are “exceeded” - just do two posts

Then also....

Can we check… are the issues only evident on wifi connections or do you see them at the same times on devices connected on ethernet cables? If you don't know, can you check to help diagnose whether it is just a wifi issue or it could be network connection/Hub related?

I had my Sky Stream connected via Wi-Fi. I have since moved it over to a wired connection and we still experience the same issues so wired/wireless makes no difference. Rather annoying when like many people we rely on it for work purposes too. Thanks 

Hi @pommy2023 thanks for your post here in the Community although we're sorry to hear of your concerns raised here.

We've ran some checks and there aren't any issues on the network as things stand, is this still happening for you?

Is it just your Sky Stream box experiencing the issues, have you been able to test anything else over ethernet to see if it works this way please?

Many thanks

Hi Tom, this issue is indeed happening on a daily basis, it does happen during the day but mainly occurs in the evening. 

I have tried my laptop on Ethernet and issue still occurs. Could you arrange for a new hub to be sent out, could the hub be an issue as so many people on the internet have mentioned about the Hub5? 

I used to have the Hub4 and it ran smoothly without any drops outs. 

thanks

I had the same problem as you. On the fourth technician visit after all cables and other bits had been changed he fitted a hub 4 👍🏼. Been working with no problems ever since.

Thank you for your reply pommy2023.

We have ran further checks that could suggest the Hub is experiencing issues. 

Although we are unable to order a replacement Hub, we can look to arrange a technician visit to investigate further. If a replacement is required, the technician can action this. 

I will just need to take some details so I will pop you over a private message. 

Speak soon,
