Hub3 red light on permanently
Hi, could I have some help from a team member please? I have followed all of the tutorials hope my hub 3 but two problems remain i) the red light is on permanently (it’s upright, has airflow, I’ve reset it by power cycling and by a pinhole reset) but once it finishes it’s POST and connects it goes to red light on ii) the wireless coverage barely covers 1/3 of the house and is intermittent for a number of devices (whilst being fine for wired connections). Id appreciate some human help as even Terri BOT has crapped out on me when it tries to transfer to WhatsApp. I’d appreciate so me help quickly as my kids need access to do their school home work.

Hi, my Hub 3 is displaying a constant red light. The light turned red over a few hours and has been constantly red for 3 days. The hub is standing in an open space with nothing covering it. The hub is not hot to touch. I have turned it off overnight but it came back on red. I'm not getting anywhere with chat/whatsapp/phone. Based on similar forum posts and resolutions I believe I need an engineer to look at it, and possibly replace it.Solved30Views0likes2CommentsHub 3 - Red light
Same problem as lots of others. Have commented elsewhere but no response from VM Moderators so thought this might be seen. Constant red light. Tried everything including pin hole reset. The hub is very warm to touch. Speeds continually dropping out and almost impossible to stream and given I am a long time customer am paying through the nose. Not great tbh.Solved41Views0likes5CommentsDrop in speed from Hub 3 as router to TP Link
Hi all, I have VM 250Mbps package with Hub 3. When using the hub as router I am getting 250Mbps+ speeds, no issues. When using my TP Link C7 AC1750 router and Hub 3 in Modem <ode, the WiFi speed drops to 100Mbps. I am using good quality (based on reviews?) ethernet cable to link the two (Cat7). TP Link C7, I believe, has sufficiently fast internet port to take the 250Mmps from Hub 3, so this shouldn't be an issue either. I also have 3x mesh devices (TP Link RE450), but I don't thinks that's relevant here. What do I need to do to get my TP Link router do 250Mbps, instead of the 100Mbps..?426Views0likes22CommentsGetting under 100mbps through TPlink router plugged into Hub 3
I recently purchased a TP Link AC1200 as I was unhappy with the wifi reliability of the Virgin Hub 3. I pay for the 250Mb Virgin package and prior the installation of the router I was getting almost that speed through Hub3 Wifi (albeit with an unreliable connection). Since connecting the TP Link router to the Hub 3 I am now getting under 100Mb from the wifi through the new router. I understand this is because the Hub3 network ports only provide a 100Mb speed therefore this is the max i would be able to get through the connected TP Link router. What would be my best way forward to get the speed that I am paying for (up to 250Mb) through the TP Link router, as I want the speed plus the reliable connection.Solved2.2KViews0likes10CommentsPermanent Red Light HUB 3
My HUB 3 has a permanent red light. I have pin reset it. I have tried turning it off for 15 mins. All this can be seen I guess in the logs. It's positioned in a well ventilated area. It doesn't feel overly warm. I have noticed the service has not been as good last few days. Can it be replaced?Solved355Views1like1Commenthub 3 and vpn home working
been working from home for a few years now but just a few days ago the vpn has stopped connecting... works if use phone as a hot spot and have also gone to a neighbours house who use sky and works OK.... Have seen a few work around on forums but as I have a hub 3 things like changing dns not option and going to modem mode not working ANES not giving me the option to turn off as saying not connected to virgin ( I am) or system errorr come back later..... Is there any way virgin can give a safe answer to this problem .. Obviously if no safe work around then may have to cancel account and use supply that I know works1.6KViews0likes16CommentsHub 3 red light

I have a Hub3 set to modem mode. It is directly connected to a wired Draytek 2927 router. If, in Mac terminal, I enter trace route 8.8.8.8, I get a response of: my local lan 192.168.nnn.nnn - The 2927 then 10.112.nnn.nnn - I assume this must be the Hub3 ?? then sgyl-core-2a-ae79-650.network.virginmedia.net 81.97.nnn.nnn My network mostly functions fine but I have some major problems because of the 2 daisy-chained routers in the network. Synology does not like it. I believe the hub in modem mode should render it "network dumb" or transparent at least. Has anyone any experience or, better, a remedy for this cos it's been doing my head in for some time? I have found no solutions out there or on this forum. Many thanks in advance.

Just signed up for broadband. After several days of delay in receiving my Hub3 because Yodel lost it, I finally received my router today. Installed fine and everything worked great… for 8 hours. Then, all lights turned off and despite several resets and testing the power supply, I couldn’t get the router to stay “on” for more than a minute. I unplugged to move to another plug socket on the other side of the room only to notice that the router rattled when I picked it up and there are clearly loose parts inside. I think I can see a wire sticking out of the bottom. Really disappointed as have clearly been sent a supposedly new router that’s broken. Why am I even paying for this? Can’t get hold of support at all and nothing online is helpful. I suspect that the “solution” I will finally get is waiting days for an engineer to come only to be told I’ll have to wait days for a new router, which will probably end up being faulty as well! Has anyone experienced this and had any luck cancelling their Virgin contract without difficulty? Would rather go to a different company than continue to pay for such shoddy service and poor customer care…622Views0likes4Comments
