Red light on hub
I have a solid red light on my virgin media hub 3 for over 6 months. (The hub is over 8 years old I believe) I’ve also been having issues with my WiFi dropping on a regular basis. I have connected virgin media and I have done a reset of the wifi router recently and have taken out the wires and plugged them in again. They sent me out a new power lead as they said this would resolve the issue, Unfortunately the red light is still coming up as a solid light light and the internet drips out on my devices from time to time.67Views0likes7CommentsWiFi Pod making a loud noise, flashing red light
Our WiFi pod has started making a loud whirring noise, like a faulty fan in a pc, and has a rapidly flashing red light. WiFi connection around the house has dropped. I have tried ringing about this, but the completely inadequate automated system does not have an option for a faulty pod, and it is impossible to get through to an operator, even though it says early on in the call, that "I'll transfer you to a member of our team". I'm sure if my bill was unpaid, I would be speaking to someone pretty sharpish. Ive just tried using the Virgin Connect app, and it is just as bad as the telephone system. Can a replacement pod or engineer's visit be arranged please?54Views0likes4CommentsPermanent 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?Solved460Views1like2CommentsHub 3 - Solid Red Light
Hi - my Hub 3 has had a solid red light for several weeks. Although I've started to experience connection drop-outs and instability over the last few days, I appreciate this may or may not be related. Looking on this forum, the "red light" issue seems quite common and I've tried the recommended initial steps to perform a factory reset and check all wired connections etc, but the light remains solid red. It appears this could be a potential over-heating/fire risk, so I'd appreciate it if someone could get in touch. Many thanks170Views0likes2CommentsQuickstart issues - flashing red light
I have today received my new Hub 5 after moving into my new flat. After following all the Quickstart instructions I am left with a flashing red light. I phoned the activation team and they activated the hub while on the phone with me but I still have the same issue. I have tried multiple resets, unplugged and plugged the cables several times and hours later still red flashing light. Previously the fault detection website was saying "your equipment isn't installed right" but now it's gone back to "your service hasn't been installed yet" but only offers to let me track my hub delivery (which already arrived...). [MOD EDIT: Subject title changed for clarity]Red light on hub 3
The Red light has appeared on my hub 3 a few days back. I have reset and still remains. I’ve tried to speak to someone at Virgin but get caught in an endless cycle of automated responses. Looking through this community I see that I likely need a new hub but can see no way of actually arranging to get one. If someone can assist that would be great.195Views0likes2CommentsRepeated loss of service red light hub
For over a year I've had repeated loss of broadband service for weeks at a time, initially told this was an area issue. Was told this was going to be fixed in two weeks but I had an ongoing issue for 6 weeks, getting any support around registering the loss was almost impossible. Eventually told that I would get a new Hub 3.0 as all the lights on mine were always off apart from a red light. Waited another 4 weeks, no new Hub. Called and was told that there wass a new fault in my area and that the new Hub was cancelled for this reason (with no notification). That seemed insane as a take so I requested a SAR over the phone for the recording to share with Ofcom, this was simply never provided. At this point if I can never have the internet, the call centre repeatedly tells me there is a fault in the equipment but they won't do anything; is there any point of staying or shpuld I simply call retentions & bite the bullet on leaving the contract early and use the Ofcom compliant to claw back the fees?606Views0likes4Comments
