Missing Wall Socket

Hello

Having just recieved our quick start kit I appear to be missing our wall socket. I have checked our brown box outside and there does appear to be a cable that would need a 

  • Tristar Data cable coupler 

But it doesnt look like its quite long enough to fit back through the hole it had come out of. The cover has come away from the box and the cable has been exposed to the elements for some time. 

I was wondering if I could possibly be able to get someone to come look into the cabling and hopefully help me with this install. I understand there would be a charge for this which I am happy to pay for.

Thank you to anyone that does reply and to any help given

Lucy

Re: Missing Wall Socket

There should be no charge for fixing the VM cable IMHO.  Just ask for a manned install as the cable at the omnibox is broken and the Quickstart kit cannot be installed.

If you wait here a day or two a VM Mod will pick this up.

Re: Missing Wall Socket

Hi I am missing a wall socket and have received my box in the mail, I only appear to have a white cable leading from outside that does not fit the router.
