tivo 6 box wireless broken

Hi i hope someone can help i have a tivo 6 box and recently i upgraded my hub from the superhub 3 to the superhub 6 and ever since that time the Tivo 6 box cannot detect the wireless connection. The tivo 6 tv box searches and searches and does not find any network at all. Previously on the superhub 3 i was connected wirelessly without any issue. All my devices currently are connected fine to the superhub 5 without issue 3 phones and 2 laptops but the tivo 6 box simply cannot find the hub. I have discussed this with Virgin customer support somewhere in Asia where i really struggled to understand what the guy was trying to say but got there in the end. All he kept insisting on is that he send me a wifi signal booster and he would not understand that all my other devices are connected fine and this seems to be a compatibility issue between the new hub and the tivo box. I was left very frustrated by his constant suggestions of sending a signal booster so i hung up on him and i am hoping someone here can now help me.

If you create a hotspot using one of your phones, can the V6 find that SSID?

It won't work for any functional purposes, the V6 needs a VM-connection - but at least will prove the box's ability to find wireless networks.
