Red light on hub
Hiya I’ve got a red light on my hub which no matter what I do won’t go away. I’m not sure if it’s impacting my WiFi as my connection keeps dropping when I’m on teams calls. I’ve done tests which says I should have a virgin wifi pod but I cannot find a way to order them anywhere. Any ideas? Thanks
Old router location, options for moving or improving wifi coverage.
I have a superhub 3. This is placed on the loft landing as back in Telewest days this was where the computer was. It is an open space by the staircase so central to the house... just at the very top. Downstairs where the V6 box is the connection seems to be getting worse. There is a bit of a dead spot downstairs too. 2 WiFi Pods don't seem to make much difference, plus there are limited plug location options in this older house. 1 WiFi Pod is plugged in on the landing pretty much directly below the router on the landing above which I thought would be a great place for it. For a while an extra V6 box was installed on the middle floor, the cable is still there, would I be able to move the Superhub to this, or would that cable now be dead. Although this location is on the middle floor, it is less central and in a room surrounded by brick walls and a closed door. I would also need a way to run a very long ethernet to it as the solar inverter is currently plugged into the Superhub (it has not got WiFi) On M500, would a Superhub 5 have better coverage if Virgin give this on M500. Any tips would be great! Thanks.Unrecognisable Router Password Character
I must admit that some of the symbols look very odd. For example what looks like a lower case e on closer inspection doesn't look like a lower case e at all. It's definitely not a zero as I have tried that without any success. Any ideas what the character is?Completely Dead Router
Please can an agent help me, I am aware that there is a service issue in the area until the 8th of this month and have already rung in. My problem is that I came home from work, my surge protector/extension lead had died and, when replaced, so had my router. By dead I mean there is no longer any lights on the router at all, as if the fuse has blown. It's not attempting to find service , it doesn't have a white, green or red light, it doesn't have any lit up or blinking icons, it is just dead. The woman on the phone has told me that until the area is fixed as this is surely the issue, they can't do anything, but the problem is, I have a week off this week, I have had to pay £20 for EE's hotspot for 5 days, and sending a replacement router now would mean working Internet as soon as it's fixed in the area, as all my neighbours still have their routers showing, meaning mine is well and truly dead. Making me suffer until the 8th, to then wait 3 days for a new router seems counter productive. There are at least 3 virgin routers running with service within the 6 houses around me. So either it needs a new plug or it needs a new box because they all have a running service, whether intermittent or not. I really dont want to spend a whole week this week running on 1mb download speed.Virgin Hub 5 Ethernet ports not working with CCTV

Now all of a sudden the remote camera viewing has gone offline and Ethernet ports are not flashing behind the router. I have tried diff Ethernet cables and same issue. It’s a hub 5 and hik vision cameras. Please help. Thank you
Multiple Small Loss of Connections Back to Back
Hi, I've been experiencing generally OK service for years but in the last 12 months have noticed the quality dropping in the form of multiple connection drops that happen throughout the day (seem to happen more frequently on the evening). I have even upgraded from 250M to 500M (at a significant price increase) and no effect. I believe my downstream power dBmV is on the high side after looking at other posts. For information I recorded 11 such drops just within 22:56 and 23:20 on 30th Sept 2025. It seems to happen most prominently with online gaming where packet-loss/connection-loss is much more noticeable, losing connecting whilst streaming tends to get away with it due to read-ahead buffering but we have experienced this using YouTube and Netflix also on separate occasions. I'm kind of stuck with where to go from here, I simply don't have time to sit on a support call for over an hour during the day due to work, only time I get free is after 10pm. My network setup is Virgin router (Hub 4) in modem mode (no other config change) Google Wifi Mesh Network connected via Eth The errors I am recording are coming from both hard wired (Eth to Router to Modem) and over WiFi. Logs in the Google mesh puck report loss of internet connection during these windows. Steps I have taken Checked wired connections on prem to house and internally to router/mesh/devices Factory reset Virgin router & Wifi Mesh Replaced Wifi Mesh with different device Factory reset Virgin router and used as Wifi (removing Google Mesh from network) Upgraded my service from 250M to 500M (no improvement) Will post additional info shortly.Internet keeps dropping off for a minute or so
Hello! My internet keeps dropping off throughout the day for a minute or so, both wired and wireless. Tried support and got nowhere. The issue only appeared or started occurring after I upgraded my internet package and got the superhub 5. Support noted that i have had 72 disconnects in the month of june but have been unable to resolve my very frustrating issue. Here are the info from the network log on my router.
