Broadband
So virgin can issued broadband to the house opersite my front door .. but don’t issue it to my house I think it’s because my adress is on a private road .. I spoke to two engineers outside my property as the box for the coms is outside my house and they both said it would be easy to do it as just run a line up the wall and into the house - I’ve been on the phone to virgin and explained I’ll pay for a engineers time to come to my house and see what is available and what they can do and she said she asked the question but because my adress isn’t on the the checker they can’t do that - inside the box on the door there was a list of properties and my adress was on there and all the addresses of the private road. What option have I got to get them to to do me broadband I’m currently with sky and because my house is big the WiFi is awful I get 70mpb but most of time I’m using my own 5g because it doesn’t work.Hub 5 - Deco X20 Issues
Hi folks, having some issues with my network setup at home wondering if anyone has any advice or suggestions. So about a year upgraded broadband package and got sent out the hub 5, was previously on super hub 2 which was very stable and reliable. Got the hub 5 installed and it was rubbish with internet connection constantly dropping. Had a couple of engineers out, they couldn't find any solutions so did a bit of research and found the deco X20. Set it up, hub 5 in modem mode, main deco in router mode and 2 other units placed in other parts of the house. Worked fantastic, very stable and full coverage all over the house, even got around to wiring up the second deco via ethernet for even better signal. Fast forward a few months ago, having nothing but issues, deco gets the red light, connected no internet then get the flashing red light on hub. Hub comes back to green, sometimes deco comes back itself sometimes it doesn't and needs a reboot. Had 2 engineers first one mentioned some kind of power issue causing the hub 5 to reboot all the time and the apparent solution was tweaking the cable which goes into the hub. After that was sent a new modem, same issues after setup with decos, second engineer couldn't find any faults but I wasn't at home at the time to ask him any questions, when I did get back, I found the hub had been reset and back to its default WiFi mode, no idea why he did that. So the last time I spoke to customer service they mentioned ruling out an issue with my router setup, I was skeptical because the hub was showing flashing red lights so I assumed it was an issue with isp connection. However I gave it a shot, removed all the decos, reset the hub 5 and it's now running in WiFi mode with a stable connection over the last few days. The issue is the dead spots around the house, which the decos were the perfect solution for. Any ideas on why the decos are suddenly the issue, I've reset them various time, upgraded the firmware, set up auto reboot for early hours, even changed them to ap mode with the hub in normal WiFi mode but no luck. It seems like the deco setup is causing some interference with the internet connection causing the hub to crash as well. Any suggestions would be appreciated, apologies for the long read just wanted to give full context.Hub 5 flashing blue
Hello I hope someone can help me here.. just recently got a new hub 5 delivered because my old one broke and now this one is constantly flashing blue for almost 2 days now 😞 I’ve called and emailed but no one is helping me. I’m guessing it’s something to do with the box needing activated or something? really hope someone can help me in this thread thank you so muchSolid Green light
I had my installation completed earlier today. All the techs that came where very good and helpful however they did leave before the Hub before it established any connection. I am still waiting 5 hours later with a solid Green light and no connection. Customer service teams on phone and Live chat have not been overly useful at all. This is all very frustrating following multiple cancelled installation dates. Being misled on the phones already prior to the installation. I am also expecting to receive compensation after I was told this on the phone but unsure what to believe at this point. Ultimately I just want it sorted and running broadband!
New Hub 5, won't connect, blue flashing lights. Hub 3 was fine!
I was sent a new Hub 5 to replace a Hub 3 (which was working fine). I've followed the instructions but it won't connect, it has a white light for a minute then turns to blue flashing lights which I believe means it's still setting itself up. I phoned to check it was activated and was told it is fine their end and would work in a couple of hours. It's now been 6+. I logged in to settings by connecting the hub to my laptop and it says "Requesting CM IP address". I've tried resetting several times. They have booked an engineer in a few days but I'm frustrated that everything was fine on the old hub (which now no longer works) and concerned the engineer might not be able to fix it on the day and I'll need to wait even longer. Does anyone have any suggestions of other things to try? Have I missed anything?Assistance Needed: Unable to Connect New Router
Hello, I received the new router Hub5 yesterday but haven’t been able to connect to the WiFi. The box mentioned that I need to set it up within 5 days, after which the old router will be disconnected. I’m quite worried, as I work from home and rely heavily on a stable internet connection. I’ve checked the website for contact details but couldn’t find any, and now I’m not sure what to do next. I’d be very grateful for any help. Thank you.Moving Router to another room
Hi, i have recently signed up after moving home and wanted to have the router installed upstairs where it could be used via ethernet to make full use of the gigabit bundle i have signed up for. Unfortunately when signing up i was told there was no longer an option to have a technician come to install the router. Is it still possible to have someone come out and move the router? The wifi speeds are very low in most of the rest of the house and even a powerline adapter hasn't helped much. Any help with this would be appreciated as the bundle isn't really worth the cost as is.Virgin install - solid green light
I’ve just had Virgin installed (hub5x) and I have a solid green light. The engineer did his best but left saying it will hopefully turn white soon. He will keep me updated and I have his contact details so can contact him directly too. He was really helpful actually. It’s not like he fled and left me to it. Can anyone shed any light on the solid green light situation? Many thanks
