Intermittent speed and stops

Every morning and midday our Internet slows and sometimes stops. This is a regular thing bit I keep being passed to a bot that asks me to reset our hub.

I have followed all the steps several times but its becoming ridiculous.

Do I just cancel virgin and go with another distributor?

Set up a BQM as this will monitor and show the issue - useful first piece of evidence to present to VM

If you haven’t already, set up a free, secure and “offlsite” - “Broadband Quality Monitor” to continually monitor the state of your connection and record any true network dropouts , latency issues, packet drops, etc - it will thus allow you to differentiate between those and simple wifi dropouts. It does it 24/7/365 and it keeps a visual record of any/all of your network disconnections, useful data to have to match to the Network logs (in your Hub settings) and also in discussions with VM - note it will take a few hours to start seeing a sensible picture - post up the “link” to the “share live graph” (as per instructions on the TB website) when it starts to develop.

Good Afternoon Danwomble, 

 

Thanks for your post on our Community Forums and a very warm welcome to you!

 

Sorry to hear you've been experiencing issues on the broadband connection.

 

I've looked i to the local area and there doesn't appear to be any issues in the local area, or evidence of network congestion

 

Have you been able to create a BQM as advised from @jbrennand?

 

Kindest regards,
