Wifi issues

Katski
Joining in

Can anyone help me please. I’ve had major intermittent issues since joining Virgin. Numerous phone calls and still issues. Internet intermittently drops out of devices (but not at the same time) - so one can be working and not another device right next to it. 

I’ve now got a wifi pod but that’s not helping and now told that maybe my wifi pod is faulty as it doesn’t have a solid green light. When I plug it in it has a white light then a blinking white light then it goes to no light. Is this faulty or is this how it should be?

Any tips, I’m 3 months in on my contract now and getting really frustrated that I have 500mb internet but my sky 70mb was far better. I don’t even get 500mb, usually max of 200mb in the same room as the router.

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?

See message 5 in this thread for how to connect Pods properly
