Hi how do I order the Wi-Fi pods as can’t get the connect app to work?

Since i've had my service unblocked (as per the engineer: "they've blocked you due to noise on the line"), i've been unable to access a number of different IP addresses through my service. Traceroutes show the traffic flow is stopping, for whatever r...
Red light on the hub and it runs hot done all that the blog says no good
For the past couple of months now, we have had a steady red light on our hub 3.0 and days when connectivity is very poor/non-existent despite there being no issues in the local area. We have tried the suggested fixes from Virgin (resetting, securing ...
