If you have a Hub4 or 5 then login on the first page up. If you have an SH2 or Hub3 - dont log in just click on the “router status” icon/text at bottom-middle (Hub3) or top/right (SH’s) of the Login page.

Then Navigate to these “data pages” and 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 page. 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).

even worse today  what is up with virgin media , its been bad for all of 2023 so far!!

VM don't give compensation for poor service, only for total loss of connection. 😞

[Damianp]

The engineer I had out yesterday said that my issues which are similar to yours are caused by the cabinet itself being a complete mess with lots of old cables and broken cables being plugged in which are from ex-Virgin Media customers. This then creates lots of noise.

He said that the cabinet was the worst he'd ever seen - since working many years ago in....Croydon.

Hi bigguy283,

Thank you for your post, I'm really sorry to hear you've had quite a few issues with your service this year. 

I've had a look at this end and I can see that there is an ongoing SNR outage (signal to noise ratio) in your area which will be causing you the trouble.

The outage is estimated to be fixed by 23rd March. Please do let us know how things are from there and if you need any further help.

We're sorry for any inconvenience caused in the meantime.
