I Tried returned a RT-AX8TU & Asus EI mesh pod to Amazon as things were really no better & continue to get drop outs all the time & I know its not the wifi as I am getting continous drop outs listening to Radio 3 through my Linn Klimax Ds/1 streamer connected via LAN to the Virgin Hub ...there it goeas again!...I have shown below the quality monitor for the virgin hub below though if I am honest I don't quite understand what I am looking at...I received a notification that Virgin were working in the area last week but still same same old....counting down the days now till my contract ends next month....this was yesterday today it is even worse.

Hi there @Pidge22

 

Thank you for popping back to us and we are so sorry to hear that the issues have continued! 

 

Thank you for sharing these screenshots, can I ask if you are able to perform a wired speed test for us? 

 

Are you also able to post a live BQM link? 

 

Thank you.

Thank you for your reply and for providing the link/results. 

You have mentioned your computer is wired to the Hub via Ethernet. Is this a Cat 6 Ethernet cable?

Are other devices impacted?

Hi no the macbook is connected via WIFI thanks....

Hi Pidge22, thank you for getting back to us! 

Having had a little look into this for you I can see you are currently affected by a local outage. This is due to end on 2nd December at 2pm. 

You can see outage updates here: https://virg.in/service or by calling 0800 561 0061. 
Please let us know if you continue to have issues following the confirmed end of the outage, and we will happily offer further support! Thank you for your patience in the meantime!

All the best.

Thank for the info but there is my issue thats a long time for an outage ...had a problem this afternoon connecting to Hive & couldn't even connect to do a sam Knows speed check on my iphone...we still can't watch Apple TV + with Dolby Vision witout constant freezes due to Bandwith Issues I would assume.We really want to stay with Virgin but cannot live with another 18 months of these kind of issues...

This is what it is stating when I run the service status for my postcode:

Hi @Pidge22 

Sorry to see that the outage is still ongoing.

To be honest the Check Service Status is often only populated with details of wide spread outages.

The automated Service Status number on  0800 561 0061 usually provides details of more localised issues down to postcode level.

Whilst not ideal it's probably a better indicator of known problems and should also show the latest estimated date/time for the fault to be repaired.
