Hub3: The route(r) of all my problems
My old, perfectly working (but overheating, allegedly) Hub3 was recently replaced with another one of the same. (received August 2nd). Since then however, I have been unable to connect any of my Google Home smart devices. Two clock displays and an outdoor cam. Of the 14 days which have elapsed, I have literally been dealing with Google Support by email on at least 10 of those days. But we're getting nowhere fast. So much so, they are now at the point of offering me a credit for the online Google Store for the inconvenience. But I digress... All of my Google smart devices were working absolutely fine and have been for years. Until now. So, my question is: Are there any changes need to be made to the default settings of my Hub3 router? I do not recall making any specific changes in the past. But I find it extremely odd and frustrating that all was well until I received this new replacement Hub3. Seems to me to be where the problem(s) lie. I tried contacting VM Support initially by chat before coming on here, but I was immediately given a phone number for the Gadget Support Team which I believe is a pay service and I have no intention of doing that. I simply want to know if there's anything obvious I need to change in the Hub3 config. Please help!? You are my last hope before I am forced to ditch all Goggle Home smart devices and replace them with alternatives. (and hope that I do not face similar issues with those). Thanks in advance.Missing power adaptor for ONU box
I recently ordered VM and have the hub delivered today. I have an optical outlet in the wall that goes to the ONU box which then connects to the hub with the supplied coax cable. i am missing the power supply for the white ONU box, and not sure what spec the replacement one should be? I have also had to order a new fiber optic cable from the outlet to the ONU box. hopefully this will allow me to get started once I have all these. thanksMoving router to upstairs at the back of the house.
Hi We have recently purchased a property with the old owners using virgin before, we went with virgin media, I got the home install kit just to get it online asap whilst we decided what rooms will be what. I would now like the router moving to my office at the back of the house upstairs, the router is currently in the living room at the front of the house downstairs. I would like to book an engineer out to carry out this move and then test all the lines to make sure we are getting the correct speeds, as we use this for working from home and gaming so we need it the best it can be! Thank you MatthewFibre box illegally installed on my land
I have seen that this is happening a lot and I can’t see any way to get hold of Virgin to speak to someone about this without being passed from pillar to post. Earlier this week we had some sub contractors turn up and dig up the pavement to install whatever was required for fibre. So far, so good. Walked out of the house today to see the new fibre box has been installed on my land. This was without my permission and without any prior knowledge. I am livid. Any ideas of who can help would be very much appreciated.Cable installed into a bathroom without permission to a property we don't own
We are buying a house which we have exchanged contracts on and are completing the purchase August 1st. We told VM, and arranged an install for a few days later. They said there may be works "in the road" ahead of the install date which was fine. The people we are buying the house from have contacted the agents to say that VM have been while they are out and installed a cable by cutting the tarmac drive without any permission. They have also drilled into the house, directly into a bathroom and damaged the tiles. They narrowly missed pipes! The sellers are rightly angry, and so am I. Am I right in saying that this is criminal damage? In my mind I want not only the cable putting in the right place, but also the driveway resurfacing and the tiling redone. I am frankly furious. The complaints team said that they will "send the crew back to fix it" but I've had to say no for at least 8 days because they don't have permission to be there. Does anyone have any advice?Ordered a self-install kit and found no Virgin Wall Socket
Hi, I recently ordered a self-install kit for my home. It was recommended by the system, so I thought there should be a socket. However, I spent 3 hours at home looking for the Virgin Wall Socket. But I couldn't find it. So can you please help me with this? Thank you.VM connect app keeps asking 'are you at home?' when attempting to use home scan
I recently installed VM broadband and TV, and I can connect to the router (hub 5) with my phone and the VM stream box, but he VM connect app keeps asking 'are you at home?' whenever I attempt to use the home scan function - although I am already connected to the hub. I have tried rebooting the router and reinstalling the app but it makes no difference. I have also used different devices (iphone and ipad) but it is still the same. I'm not running any VPNs. I have already seen that at least one other person on this community is having this same problem. Can someone from CS please respond?Broadband
So virgin can issued broadband to the house opersite my front door .. but don’t issue it to my house I think it’s because my adress is on a private road .. I spoke to two engineers outside my property as the box for the coms is outside my house and they both said it would be easy to do it as just run a line up the wall and into the house - I’ve been on the phone to virgin and explained I’ll pay for a engineers time to come to my house and see what is available and what they can do and she said she asked the question but because my adress isn’t on the the checker they can’t do that - inside the box on the door there was a list of properties and my adress was on there and all the addresses of the private road. What option have I got to get them to to do me broadband I’m currently with sky and because my house is big the WiFi is awful I get 70mpb but most of time I’m using my own 5g because it doesn’t work.
