Hi to all,
im just watching BBC1 HD and there’s quite a lot of pixelation going but it’s been there for a while to be honest so is there anything I can do to remedy this issue?
I’m not having any issues with my VM broadband.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Don't even get me started on the BroadBand issues >.<
How Virgin say an average 99.98% reliable. Reliable for what exactly? It ain't the given speeds.
Hold on, here we go:
M200 Fibre Broadband
Average download speeds of 213Mbps
Hahahahahahaa 😄 If that is an "average" I would love to know the top end for that BroadBand class.
NEVER seen anywhere near that yet even wired.
I think what that statement is meant to read is FASTEST EVER.
If that 213Mbps is an average. Then there are some seriously lucky people getting in excess of 400Mbps as most of my family and friends on the same package get around 80-180Mbps if we are lucky. So over 5 households at lets the average is 120Mbps ish wired.
A far cry from "Average 213Mbps" Virgin quote

Thank you for your reply pep4uk.
Although I completely understand that you should have been advised that the flashing light is a known issue, it is definitely not service affecting and in no way linked to slow speeds.
Speak to you next week, have a lovely weekend.

I'm in area 31 (Hemel Hempstead) and have been experiencing intermittent pixelation issues since Wednesday 10th July. This happens daily across all channels mostly between 6.30 pm & 8 pm but it also happens during different times of the day. When it is particularly bad the WiFi drops at the same time.
Service status states no broadband issues & 1 TV issue that is not related to pixelation. We have checked all the connections & they are fine
My husband & I are getting so frustrated with this. Virgin media is not cheap when you have been a customer for years (they don't really appear to reward loyalty) & we are currently paying for a service that's not working properly!!

Are you using the 5Ghz WiFi network? If not you'll be lucky to see anything over 100Mb. Also what phone are you using, only very high spec phones can reach 500Mb over WiFi, most will get about 200-300Mb maximum.
