Hi,
Since switching over to a Hub 5, I have found that I cannot reliably connect to my work's VPN. I've seen other posts on this topic and the advice seems to be to use modem mode and then buy a wireless router. Is this the only suggested option?
My work is using Microsoft's AlwaysOn VPN - over ports 500 & 4500. It is not locked down to a specific WAN IP or anything like that.
When I first got the Hub 5 VPN connectivity didn't work at all for the first 36 hours (while everything else worked) and then suddenly it started working. However the other day my hub went offline for a few minutes and since then I've not been able to connect at all. All other internet services are working fine and I can even see traffic from my home IP in our work firewall over port 500/4500.
Beyond buying additional equipment is there anything I can do?

Thanks - do you have any recommendations for a wifi router which works well with Virgin? Not looked at consumer wifi kit in a while.
(Strangely, I find my work VPN periodically works, but nowhere near consistently enough to be usable)
