1Gb line, advisers tells me its a issue with my wifi, I need a speed booster /confused ??????????????

VM speed test says,

Sam knows show to the hub

Concerned_user_1-1720306230423.png

Root cause of problem, Poor Signal Strength and errors

Concerned_user_2-1720306342943.png

Why does VM support not share this information, and why is the issue being mis-diagnosed???, please advise on next steps to resolve.

Seems VM are pushing Sam knows, which is inaccurate, my question is why, when there is clearly an issue, why the smoke and mirrors, why not just recognise the user has an issue, identify it, make a plan to correct and move on, to share a false representation of the service and then mis-identify the root cause only wastes everyone's time, and erodes the confidence of the customer in the product. 


I will attempt to arrange an engineer out tomorrow, its probably water in the box again 😞

940Mbps isn't correct for Gig1, it should be around 1130 - 1152Mbps.

940 on ethernet is correct. Were your speed tests on WiFi?

We need to see the full data set - but start from a clean sheet - do this..

___________________

Switch the Hub off and unplug it from the mains supply for five minutes. Whilst it's off, do a quick check that all of your coax and ethernet cable connections are in nice and "finger" tight - at the Hub and wall box and also at any connectors etc. Ensure there are no “unterminated cable loose ends. Disconnect all the connections and reconnect to be sure. Also check that the internal wiring is ok with no kinking or chaffing.  Check that all looks good with the outside cabling and wall box (no “staples, etc.,) piercing the cables. Then switch the Hub back on and leave ~5 minutes When all done, check back in the settings and ensure that the RS error counts and T3 errors have all reset to 0. Then check every hour or so to see if they start reappearing - they shouldn't. If they do (particularly the postRS and T3 ones) you have a problem (noise) that only a Tech visit will sort.
Also check the Upstream QAM’s are all at 64

Post the full data set... just copy/paste the normal “Formatted Text” (not images) 3 FULL sets of data onto here – 2 tables from the Downstream, 2 from the Upstream, & the Network Logs pages. Don't worry too much about the formatting it can be easily read & DON’T include personal data or MAC addresses - blank them out - if you copy/paste the data, the board software will do this for you (you may need to click the "submit" button again). If character limits are “exceeded” - just do two posts

Also, 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”. Click the lower link (Share Live Graph) then, click generate. Copy the text in the Direct Link box, beware, there may be more text than you can see. On here click the Link icon (2 links chain to the left of the camera icon) In the URL box paste the link you copied and then click OK

To the HUB, not to a device.

Yes.

maybe VM link limited from speed test to hub at 1Gb on the server
