Upstream power too high and downstream power out of spec. Probably you are a long way from the street cabinet. You need moving to another tap on the street cabinet unless there is an area fault. You need a technician’s visit to rectify.  

Check with Area faults on 0800 561 0061 If you have a VM landline 150 this goes down to post code level. You could also try the web page status, but this is not recommended as it only covers issues that affect a very large number of customers.

VM will not dispatch any technicians while an area fault exists.

If no area faults found:

The primary place to report faults or for service requests is Customer Services on 0345 454 1111/150 if you have a VM landline or wait two or three days for a VM staff member to get to your post.

From what I can see the downstream power levels are way too low. Cannot read photos of stats very easily, please follow this and post a new set of stats:

How to get stats from a VM hub (no need to logon to the hub)

Open a web browser and go to 192.168.0.1 router mode or 192.168.100.1 modem mode

  • Click on the “> Check router status” button
  • Click on the “Downstream” tab, copy the text and paste into your reply, do not take a screen shot
  • Click on the “Upstream” tab, copy the text and paste into your reply
  • Click on the “Networking” tab, copy the text and paste into your reply.
    • Do NOT post photos or screen shots they will be rejected as they contain MAC addresses. The board software will automatically change MAC addresses to **:** if done as above.

Hi there @LeighDaz Thanks for reaching out to us and a warm welcome to the Virgin Media Community forums. 👋🏼

I'm sorry to hear about the issues with the connection you have recently experienced.
I've had a look and I can see there are quite a high substantial amount of drops on the line.
This will need further investigating and I will assist you on this and send a private message.

Kind regards,
Ilyas.
