Wall socket connection issue on startup

[Olvr98]

Hi there,

I moved into a new flat and got a self start-up kit. Essentially, I can’t figure out how to connect my broadband cable into the wall socket. There are two empty wall sockets but the cable doesn’t fit into either. There is this aerial splitter which seems the most obvious place to connect to, but the broadband won’t set up properly, as there is some hardware connection issue.

Am I missing something obvious? Kinda need the WiFi asap and technician visit would be too late

That's the correct connector.

What colour does the LED appear as after a few minutes (HUB)?

Call the pre-installs team and explain your issue, on 0800 052 1734 8AM- 9PM Monday - Friday or 8AM-6PM Saturday and Sunday

It could be the cable is disconnected externally to your property.

Bearing in mind this is the first setup.

It initially goes solid white, then flashes white, then a solid green WiFi symbol and a flashing green light.

I understand this means there is some connection issue. But, surely, the wire can’t be faulty, it’s fresh from the box.

Thanks, I’ve rang a virgin and they are sending a technician out, which might be the only solution. But I’ll give this number a call too. From my understanding there was tennant here only months before me successfully using a similar Virgin set up, but you may be correct
