Modem Mode | Hub 5x | Cooling off period
The dream came true and Virgin laid the fibre and offered FTTP in an area where my ADSL would be lucky to get 32 Megabits per second. I did my research and found that Modem Mode is possible so that I can use my existing Asus router / Wifi 🙂 Service was installed and as soon as the engineer left I logged in and there is no Modem Mode 😞 Found this, https://www.reddit.com/r/VirginMedia/comments/1ah1boq/hub_5x_working_modem_mode, which worked first time and my Asus got a Public IP and I was in business 🙂 Wife complained about where I had meticulously setup all the kit, there's a lesson in there, so I moved it all, and it never worked again, despite running through it several times. Before I cancel the service is there anything that can be done from the Virgin side of things to get Modem Mode working in a stable fashion within the next 5 days? I see people have been asking for this for a very long time. I also see that some people report they have newer firmware than me, 1.2.1b / 2.40.13-2210.4, but it sounds like it's some phased roll out. I also found some threads talking about a device that can be used but found that very high temperatures are reported and cooling may be required, so I'm not tempted by the option. So, before I cancel, dig out my Vigor 130 and go back to BT, is there anything that can be done? Thanks in advance. Greg
