WiFi Pods order

[vannylu]

My package has been upgraded and was told I would get 3 WiFi pods but no sign so I assume I have to order them somehow, but how?

Pods need ordered via the VM Connect app. Once a black spot has been identified, the app will allow you to order a Pod.

Hmmm thanks for that but that isn't quite how the conversation went. Not ideal when the Connect app only occasionally decides to recognise the hub. And when I do get it to work there is no option available to order pods so I assume a 'poor' signal is not good enough to be called a blackspot.

Yes, the Connect app is a bit "flakey" shall we say?

I don't know how it decides when a Pod is necessary as I don't use the app.  I supply my own kit and run the Hub in modem mode as it's better for my sanity ...

Thanks. That was my original plan then they offered me these so perhaps I'll go back to plan A!
