Flashing Red Light 5x

We have the VM5x hub that has worked faultlessly for 6 months, but now has the dreaded flashing red light resulting in no internet connection and unhappy kids (and man child) at home.

We’ve checked all the cables, even though they haven’t been touched, and rebooted / reset the hub multiple times over the last 8 hours with no joy. We’ve also particularly enjoyed the system checker and the endless loop of “Wifi hub isn’t connected properly” (it is), along with the online checker that does the same. The real beauty of the customer service matrix is that it’s actually impossible to book an engineer or talk to anyone resembling a human. So here I am trying the only option left and throwing myself at the mercy of the community and the lovely people within it. Please help before I go mad or the kids/man child revolt.

Hi village69,

Thanks for posting and welcome to our community 😊

Sorry there's some issues with the hub, so I can get a few more details from you I've popped you over a private message.

Hi there, I seem to be experiencing something very similar. Were they able to sort the issue out? I've read a lot of posts on here with similar-ish sounding issues where people have suggested several months of going round in circles before the issue was sorted. Just trying to get any insights I can to hopefully speed up the process. Thank you.

Hi @Desert 👋 Thank you for your post and welcome to the Virgin Media Community 😀

We're sorry to hear you're experiencing a similar issue 😔

I can see you spoke to the team on quite a few occasions before posting on Monday. Did they manage to book an appointment for you?

Please pop back to us at your earliest convenience.

Regards,
Daniel

Hi, supposed to be visiting later today. Got fingers crossed it's something trivial. Not sure what to do if it doesn't get resolved. 

Cheers
