I am a Volt customer and saw I can get some free Wifi pods as a benefit but am required to run a test on my hub 4 via the VM Connect app. Unfortunately despite being connected to my wifi and it working on my device the app wont find the Hub, I've tried the typical troubleshooting 'fixes' i've seen in other threads so I assume my Hub is one of the ones with data problems that make it unable to be picked up by the app that I read about in other threads, what am I meant to do if the way to claim my volt benefit doesnt work

Hi
Same problem this end with connect app. I have done at least 2 hard resets but did not cure it. Also cannot connect to hub4 direct using 192.168.0.1. Someone has suggested that the hub has a fault but I can connect to Internet using WiFi or ethernet. I have one of the black pods and it has improved WiFi at this end.
Hope you get it sorted.

Hi MacauleyBrown22,
Thanks for posting and welcome to our community 🙂
Sorry to hear you're having some issues with the connect app, can you confirm if you've tried uninstalling/ re-installing this?

I have exactly the same issue - VM Connect suddenly stopped working and now I can’t get it see the hub. Tried resets, removing and restoring the app etc. I have some devices paused currently and can’t unpause them until I can get back into VM Connect!

You can login to the admin console on the Hub at 192.168.0.1 and remove the devices from the MAC filtering, a.k.a. "paused devices" You don't need the App to do this sort of work.

Isn't it sad that we have to revert to a Forum in order to get the attention of Virgin Media (hopefully) regarding things that don't work. I joined Virgin Media in December last and from the start I was unable to connect to my Hub4, receiving the same response as others in associated Forums. As a result, I am unable to use the apparent facility within it that enables me to walk around the house to prove that I need a booster. I know I need one because I am compelled to continue using my Sky equipment for that very reason. Apparently there is no other way of obtaining one, you cannot order them otherwise. Meanwhile I am bombarded, like today, with emails from Virgin Media saying that I am missing out without their Volt package. I have the current VM Connect app download (I am sick of dowloading the latest in the hope that something will work), I am sufficiently tecky to know that the cables are connected properly, not least I have a perfectly working connection to the Internet. I clearly need a new Hub, installed by a technician who will not leave my house until he/she is satisfied that my VM Connect app works and provide me with a booster station that does the job that their emails keep telling me will make life better for me.
