Constant packet drops on VM 1GB for the last 2 weeks
Hi all, Been with VM since 2020 and the last 2 weeks have been the worst in terms of stability. Just doing a basic ping to 1.1.1.1 and I can see frequent drops Here you can see the Broadband quality monitor You can see the consistent red packet drops. Tried the usual , restarting / resetting router but no improvement. The fact its been like this for 2 weeks, especially over the holiday period is extremely frustrating. Speaking with support who tell me to check my Ethernet cable or restart my PC - when im trying to explain the outage affects every device in the house. Has anyone else experienced packet loss like this ? Did it fix itself or what happened ?610Views0likes16CommentsRe: Upgraded to 1Gb but getting 500mb speeds
I am having the same issue. I was on 500mbps before, and used to get around 450mbps. I cancelled my contract and just before my Sky install I was offered 1000mbps to stay with Virgin... I stayed and got the new hub... but I am still getting only around 200-450mpbs. Its as if the new speeds have not been activated as its literally no different and was the only reason I stayed and didn't just move to Sky and have cheaper 500mpbs with them. Lucky I am in my 14 days still so I might just cancel and still move to Sky anyway if its not resolved.17KViews1like66CommentsUpdated Contract but Account Wrong
I upgraded my contract last Monday and received two emails confirming it and an estimated activation date of 2nd June. As I'm moving from 500mb to 1Gb I expected a confirmation that my hub 3 would swapped with a hub that can handle 1Gb but so far I've heard nothing. On checking my account details online and on the app it still shows my old package, it hasn't updated . Before I go through the torture of trying to call Virgin, has anyone else had this issue?483Views0likes1CommentVM 1GIG TPLink Router - Broadband goes down daily
Hi all, I have VM 1GIG Broadband package in modem mode using an Omada TP-Link Router and LAN, AP’s etc. Roughly on a daily basis the broadband goes down, there’s no distinct pattern and it occurs most days. Outage can last from 60seconds to 5minutes. I have switched the HUB5 back into Router mode to enable monitoring/testing and I do get some dropped packets, is the amount acceptable? (see TBB graph). Also, could someone please help me with he HUB5 router logs? I don’t really know what I should be looking for - does it look ok?

Hello, I recently got the 1Gb line on a contract renewal. But I am not getting the speeds. From the Hub 5 I have three Cat 7 ethernet connections going out from it (brand new cables). The first one in the same room is wired into my firestick, I ran the inbuilt speed test and got this 90 mb What I don't understand is the doing the hub speed test I get the following: The second Cat 7 goes into a power line adapter, which I unplugged when I ran the test. The third one goes to a TP Gigabit network switch which has two Cat 7 cables going into my PC and laptop respectively. The switch is also brand new. When I ran speed tests my laptop showed 500mb and my PC 350mb. I'm only a couple of days in to my contract and I am struggling to understand what the issue is. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Solved2.9KViews0likes14Comments
