Downloading on Xbox App for PC, and console's only working when connected to a VPN.
So I've been having this problem for about a month now. For the first 3 weeks of having Virgin fibre (via the Hub5x), I had no issues with downloading anything, and the speeds were great. However after one night, when the internet went down, I went to reset the hub to check to see if that fixed any issue. It reconnected, but since then I have had the issue described in the title. Typically what happens is a download will start, it will download for a few seconds and then I'll get an error notification, or a message that the download was stopped (or in the PlayStation's case, stuck on 'calculating'). Strangely, even when not connected to VPN, I can still download via Steam, and Epic Games Launcher on PC. I haven't tried absolutely every app, so I can't say for sure how many do or don't work. When I do connect to a VPN (currently using ProtonVPN), I can all of a sudden start downloading again without issue. I also tend to find that certain games drop connection when not using a VPN, but I'm unsure if that's related. I have tried so many different fixes, ranging from the basics to some more complex stuff, but I can't for the life of me figure it out. If anyone has any idea what might be causing certain downloads to be blocked/cancelled and throwing up error codes, it would be much appreciated. Thanks.Xbox series S Network keeps disconnecting
Anyone else having the same issue with the Xbox network? I have the Virgin 5x Router. Recently got an Xbox series S and almost every time I try to play online it disconnects me. I have tried port forwarding, still no luck. I’m no tech genius but reading through Google, it seems a pretty common problem. Wondered if anyone managed to find a solution because the help support from virgin is either nonexistent or basically, they can’t be bothered to help and palm me off saying it’s the Xbox’s issue. Which I know it isn’t because when I hotspot my phone it works perfectly fine. Apologies if this thread has been made hundreds of times before. I got sick of reading threads from years ago and not getting anywhere with them.When I Play on XBox Connected via Lan, My Ring WiFi Camera Always Disconnects!
As above. I'm on the 1GB service, but every time I play online, my Ring camera loses internet connection and only reconnects when I log off Xbox. I have the Hub 4 and even though I upgraded to 1GB, I was told there is a shortage of the newer routers that new customers are given. So I didn't get one at the time of ordering. The ring camera is connected via wifi. The xbox and tv via Lan cable. Any help or advice would be great, because webchat is disgustingly slow.
