Something happened on the 15th since then constant 1-5% dropped packets, today router had to be rebooted because it peaked to be totally unusable.
Call helpdesk and just get told no area issues reboot, Virgin works perfectly but once issues start it takes forever to get acknowledged and fixed
BQM of today...

Called them again this time they said it looks like cable issue between brown box and router. I was told to reconnect both ends and monitor for a week before calling back. I disconnected and reconnected both ends monitor for an hour now and packet loss the same. Guess I have to sit on my hand for a week before I can call to say issues still exists.
As always VM broadband is amazing when its working which to be fair is most of the time, but when something goes wrong is a real pain to get it sorted in timely manor and its certainly not the cheapest option.
