Wi-Fi keeps dropping

I moved to virgin last month and got hub 3. I got a mesh as well. But my Wi-Fi keeps dropping as a result. The phone gets disconnects or can’t make calls using Wi-Fi. Same with other things like smart TVs and laptops. Ethernet connected computer haven’t seen an issue. Please help. Thanks. Pras

So... no issues on ethernet connections but just on wifi from your Mesh - is that correct?

If so... What make and model of Mesh system is it?

Have you tried a new Cat6 ethernet cable between Hub and 1st Mesh unit?

Have you got the Hub in modem mode?

Did you follow the correct connection "sequence" that is posted in many posts on here?

Hi,

Eventhough the engineer came to fix the issue it’s still dropping. Can’t even make Wi-Fi mediated voice call. It’s bit worse now. Thanks 

Hi Prasanna,

 

Sorry to hear you're still experiencing some issues. 

 

Can you please confirm if this is just the WiFi? How is it via Ethernet cable?

 

Do you have a BQM set up?

Hi it’s mainly Wi-Fi. I don’t use Ethernet that much. I don’t see any problem with landline calling. I don’t have BQM.

thanks

Hey @Prasanna,

 

Thanks for getting back to us - I'm really sorry to hear that the issues have persisted.

 

I'd like to get another visit booked in for you and inform the engineering team that this is not fully resolved. I've ran further checks from ours side and all of your upstream levels are out of spec. 

 

I'll just send you a private message to confirm some account details and we'll go from there, just keep an eye on the purple envelope at the top of the page.

 

Thanks,

Hey @Prasanna,

 

Thanks for getting back to me via private message. As advised I've booked another visit for you so one of our engineers can hopefully get this resolved fully for you.

 

You can check the appointment via the online My VM Account and also change the date/time there too if needed.

 

Please keep us posted following the visit and don't hesitate to let us know if you require any further assistance.

 

Kind regards,
