I have Volt 250 with the Max guarantee.
After a lot of effort I managed to order my first pod via the webchat due to my WiFi coverage being well below 30mbps in most rooms in my house.
This has improved the coverage, but there are still rooms getting less than 20mbps. According to the FAQs I've read I need to find the WiFi Max tab on my account and follow the instructions there to order a 2nd pod. But I can't find that tab anywhere, can anybody help direct me, or else give me another way to order the 2nd pod.

Your wasting your time if one pod can't fix it its clearly the hub being the problem get a better router with 1Gb ports and use hub in modem mode.

The pod does seem to be working for me, it's improved the coverage on my first floor considerably.
It's just on the 2nd floor, the speed is still below 20mbps. I think a strategically located 2nd pod would give me sufficient speed up there.
I wouldn't want to pay more by upgrading my speed, given these pods are already included in the deal I'm paying for.

Hi Joshhuntstewart
Thanks for your post and welcome to our community.
We're happy to hear the 1st pod has improved the service.
We recommend waiting at least one week between one pod being installed and another being ordered. This allows time for the pod to optimise.
Once its been a week, please pop back to us here and we'd be happy to help order the 2nd pod for you :).
If you have any further questions, please pop back to us and we'd be happy to help.

Thanks Vikki,
I can confirm it's now been over 1 week since installation of the first pod and we're still getting speeds under 20mbps in some rooms.
So if you could order the 2nd pod for me that would be great.
Many thanks,
Josh

You just have to get in touch, if any of the virgin people tell you to download the connect app or that you can do it from your account, or you have to wait a week, they're wasting your time hoping you forget.
