Hub3 red light permanently on
I was trying to log in to admin a couple of days ago; it kept either saying bad password or appearing to accept it but then returning to the main menu; eventually it told me to reset the machine which I did; I was able to get into admin but the response time was even slower than normal and the router could not tell that one computer was connected (even though said computer was connected through this); in fact only about five of twenty-odd devices (most of them low bandwidth IoT devices) were detected. At that point I noticed the red light was solidly on and the router was running very hot. I turned the router off overnight and it is cooler today but still a bit warmer than I'd expect; the red light has not gone off. For months/years the admin pages has been much more sluggish than other (low-end) routers I've used , but this might be normal for hub3. Performance wise, the game server can no longer receive incoming connections, and NOW TV, BBC and a number of other sites keep dropping out. Virgin's own speed test puts my speed at a respectable 85mbits/s but two definitely-independent checkers both come in at more like 15mbits/s.Hub 3.0 overheating
Hi! Had the light on my hub 3.0 seemingly go from the normal white, via shades of orange, to a really bright red. Decided to research tonight and found it it’s supposedly an overheating light. Felt the router and it did seem extremely hot. I’ve done the suggested of resetting, making sure it’s ventilated etc. but nothing seems to set it back to proper functioning. From the other posts it seems like it might have to be a router replacement. Wondering if anyone can help me. thanks, Dan
