No Virgin Media wall socket

Hello there, 

I have the quickstart pack but sadly cannot get broadband set up and working.

We have a virgin media wall socket with an ethernet port in the wall but it's a phone cable (RJ45).

Is it possible to book an appointment with an engineer? 

 

Thanks, 

Djaouad

Yes. You'll need to phone in to book one.

My name is NOT Alessandro. That's just a tag Virginmedia sticks on some contributors. Please ignore it.

post some photos - there will have been an install in the past but maybe cables have been removed

not all installs have an internal box

start outside and look for the external wall box - 6" square ish usually on wall facing road or pavement - brown or grey usually - follow any cables that come from it and go inside - if there are non look inside opposite external box as they may just have drilled through wall - as said it may just be a cable rather than an internal wall box

if you find a cable you need one of these to attach the cable that came with the quick start kit
