We keep getting random disconnects on our internet engineer has replaced hub, changed cabling and still have the fault, it’s litterally about 30 seconds or so almost like a dns error, comes up on phone router isn’t connected to the internet. This is the same on Ethernet and wifi.  Can anyone advise?

Yes there have been a couple of very brief dropouts so far.  See what happens over a day or so.

Looks pretty obvious that I’ve got issues but Virgin have not been able to sort it 😐

OK. Next step is to get the Hub stats. Copy and post here, as text not screenshots, the downstream, upstream and network logs.

Hi Nicholasc1234,

Thank you for your post and welcome to the community. 

I'm very sorry to hear about the issue you've had with the broadband service. 

I have taken a look on our side and I am unable to see anything that could be affecting this. 

To confirm, when you have said they replaced the cabling. Which exact cables have they replaced?

^Martin

Just the internal cables. Not the fibre.  But as you can see I still have a rubbish unreliable connection.
