around 50% packets loss

[ksim]

since today morning I have around 50% packet loss to anywhere after VM hub. Phone support is absolutely useless, they said they will send a "magic" message to my hub to fix this, and it takes 4 hours, and there is nothing else that can be done for me. Can anyone recommend the best approach to solve the issue? Is there a secret line?

When it has worked the magic message turns the hub into a white rabbit.

If your Hub is in Router mode try : https://www.samknows.com/realspeed/    - be sure to click on Run full test to show packet loss.

Thank you for the hint, locked the server cabinet, won't escape now.

Doesn't seem working for me

The image is still to be released.

The Realspeed only test works for Hubs (3/4/5) in Router mode.

Hubs in Modem mode can not perform this test.

Oh, yes, I am in the modem mode.

The Samknows Realspeed client is inbuilt to the Hub's firmware and it only works in Router mode.

Try checking with Area faults on 0800 561 0061 or if you have a VM landline 150 as small local faults are not listed on the VM status page.

Post the power levels, Pre and PostRS errors and network log from the Hub. Also setup a BQM to monitor your circuit www.thinkbroadband.com/ping

Once done we can comment.

tried in router mode (laptop directly connected to the hub 4), and still the same.
