Re: DHCP Reservation
Legacy1 , "Ditch pods get a better wifi router use hub in modem mode" thanks for reply. Is this a complicated move, I'm not 100% tech savvy, know a little bit but I've been with virginmedia for years and I guess just going with the flow. I got the pods last year because of poor WiFi signal. They have improved that significantly.146Views0likes0CommentsDHCP Reservation
I have a Hub 3 with 3 WiFi pods, when I installed the pods it automatically merged the 2.4ghz and 5 GHz channels. This has been fine until I installed a new TPlink Tapo C210 security camera in my garage a few days ago. the camera drops the WiFi sometimes so I have to power cycle it to re-establish WiFi connection. The camera is 2.4ghz only and I’ve read that it can get confused with the two channels and gives up. I have other devices that are 2.4 ghz only and not had issues with them. Ive seen that on the hub settings for DHCP I could reserve a IP, It seems straight forward but I’d just like to know if anyone has had a similar problem and did this fix it. Any info on this will be much appreciated, thanks in advance.478Views0likes8CommentsConnect App
Everything seems to be working and stable on my system since getting a 3rd WiFi Pod, but on the home page there's always a ! Saying 2 unknown. I click on connection it always says this: "We can't see the health of this device right now. Try again in 10 minutes". There are devices connected to the Pods with no problems. Any ideas?19Views0likes0CommentsRe: 3rd WiFi pod
Hi it seems to be settling down now and things are working better but on the Virginmedia Connect App it always says 3 unknown with a exclamation mark regarding the connection. It says connection unknown. We can't see the health of this device right now. Try again in 10 minutes. But it never does I can see what devices are connected to each pod no problem.22Views0likes1CommentRe: 3rd WiFi pod
I've answered all your questions but have not heard anything since. I've got two Pods and just asking for a third one as I am entitled too under the Volt contract I'm on. I'ts been 8 days since i first asked the question, why does it take so long to get anything done? I would like a third wifi pod please to help with the wifi dropouts I've been having.26Views0likes3CommentsRe: 3rd WiFi pod
Hi John_gs Question 1. "Have you done the app scans via the Connect App with the two Pods already plugged in?" Yes many times, Question 2. "Also to ensure the current Pods are not plugged directly into any blackspot areas but they need to be spaced out like a halfway point between Hub and issue area?" I've tried moving them and spacing them as suggested. I always give them time to settle after any move. I think a 3rd pod would help to settle the signal. Kind regards TF19Views0likes0Comments
