Intermittent signal although app claims ‘good’
My broadband is constantly dropping off and has been for days on all devices. The app says I have a good signal, as does the website. This simply isn’t true. I’ve tried disconnecting devices and rebooting the hub. This is on Plymouth… what can I do??47Views0likes2Comments4th day with no broadband
Hi, our broadband went down at some point on Wednesday and here we are 4 days later, no explanation and no apology. The status checker shows that there is a problem in our area and that projected fix date is June 30th. This really is the shoddiest of services as I am unable to work, we have no Netflix or catch up services and the hub just sits there flashing green day after day. Is anyone able to explain what is going on and why it is taking so long?78Views0likes4CommentsHub 3 hot weather no Internet
Hi, during hot weather(25°+) my hub 3.0 led shows a steady red and the internet goes. It only comes back on when the weather/temp cools down. This consistently happened every hot weather day the last few weeks. I've had my hub 3.0 about a decade now but this is my first time with this issue. Service status for my area always shows as good. I check all connections and reset everytime but it only works for a min then it goes again. The only thing that solves it is waiting for the weather to cool🙁. It's been in the same spot with lots of space around it for years without issue until now.65Views0likes3CommentsWell Done and Thank You
As i'm good at complaining about stuff, i thought i'd come here to say Well done and Thank you. The thunder and lighting storm on Saturday wiped out my broadband and tv, we contacted virgin via the web app and booked an engineer for the first available slot which was 4pm-7pm on Monday. The engineer, i wish i could remember his name, phoned at 3-50 to say he was on his way, he arrived just after 4pm and immediately started to check stuff out. The lightning had wiped out both boxes and the hub, it also took out 2 televisions and the phone. He replaced both boxes and hub and set everything up for me. We were back up and running within an hour, all we lost were the recordings. Thank you50Views1like2CommentsHub 3 - Solid Red Light
As the title explains, my Hub3 router is showing a solid red light. Weirdly, internet is stable. It's in a well ventilated place and doesn't appear to be hot/warm to the touch. I've tried powering it off/on again (even left it off overnight), full unplug and a factory reset. The solid red light returns. Please advise.54Views0likes4CommentsUsing Deco S4 with TP Link Archer AX72
Hi, I've got my Virgin Media Hub 5 in Modem mode and have connected my Archer AX72 router to it. The AX72 router is in my office and hardwired to my PC and console and all other devices are connected via Wi-Fi from the Archer AX72. I want to connect my cable box and TV in my living room via ethernet. Can I buy the S4 an connect it to my AX72? If so shall I have the S4 in Access mode or Router mode? Will the devices around the house still work via Wi-Fi from the Archer or will I need to connect to the Wi-Fi on the Deco S4? Kind of new to these things so any suggestions and help would be appreciated. Thanks89Views0likes4CommentsHalf speed hero
Hello I've been running into a strange issue that I just can't seem to figure out, so I thought I’d share it here to see if anyone has come across something similar or has any advice. I’d really appreciate any help or insights! Networking Kit: VM Home Hub 4 in Modem Mode. Asus RT-AX92U is Primary connected to the VM Hub via Cat6 (provided by VM), from Port 1 on the hub to the WAN port on the router. Asus RT-AX92U Secondary is connected to the primary router via a mesh network setup. Networking Setup and Issue: I’m experiencing significant speed loss between my Virgin Media Hub and my router. Here’s what I’ve tested so far: When I plug a wired connection directly into Port 1 on the VM Hub, I get speeds over 1 Gbps, so the external connection appears solid. When I run a speed test through the router, even using a wired connection, I only see about half that speed. Wi-Fi performance is also capped (as expected to some degree), but still lower than it should be. What I’ve tried: Swapping Ethernet cables (Cat6). Changing ports on both the VM Hub and the router. Rebooting all devices. Despite all of this, I consistently lose around 50 percent of my available speed between the VM Hub and the router. Any ideas on what could be causing the bottleneck? This isn’t a new issue. It’s been happening for a while now, and I’m honestly just fed up with it.119Views0likes9CommentsRouter requires resetting weekly
Good morning, I've tried call the virgin media phone line but get locked into a never ending cycle with the bot. Basically, swapped to virgin about a month ago and ever since we did the router disconnects all connected devices roughly once a week. The fix isn't difficult, we then have to unplug the router and let everything reconnect - not awful fix but very inconvenient especially with how much were paying! How do we fix this?62Views0likes3Comments
