Hub 5x, 2gig up/down - packet loss / latency / disconnects every 30 mins
Hi, seems I am another victim of this disconnect and packet loss issue with 5x hub and 2gig fiber, which occurs every 30mins, which seems to be caused by 'RealSpeed' checking the speed of my connection (?!). Can someone from support PLEASE stop this from happening to my service? I need this resolved asap as I rely on the connection for WFH, competitive gaming and streaming with friends. The constant disconnects are making all 3 impossible to work with. Here's the issue SOLVED by doing exactly that (getting someone to turn off the auto speed testing): https://community.virginmedia.com/discussions/Wireless/upgraded-to-2gig-and-see-ping-time-outs-and-youtube-buffering/5537915/replies/5546444 It's extremely worrying that I can find many threads nearly 2 years old with this same issue. Waited nearly 6 months for the install due to 4 rescheduled installations - now this... feeling like I should've waited for BT to reach my area. 😢
New install XGS-PON not working
Hello, new here, I ordered Virgin FTTP on the 23rd of May, Virgin were very quick to to the external work, it happened 2 days later. Had the internal work done on the 1st of June. The problem is I'm not yet connected to the internet, my engineer said its your fault as the line is perfect, the problem is at your end. But everytime i get my sister to phone (I am deaf, I cannot hear the telephone) they keep insisting that the internal work hasnt been done yet. I tried online chat help, they told me to phone the 0345 454 1111 number but they keep trying to get an engineer round as they think the internal work hasnt been done. Let me reiterate that ALL THE WORK has been done. My router CAN SEE the internet, its that under general configuration where it says "network access" It says NOT ALLOWED. The light on my 5x hub is yellow/orange Please help me here, I am deaf and cannot use the telephone, being ran around in circles by the staff on the helpline just repeating a script and not actually helping, just want my line working please. As I say, all installed I have a 5x hub on the GPON or XGS-PON. Not allowed access despite my router saying "connected" Please help me!
