Extending Range to Garden Office
I've got a definite dip in Wifi speed in my garden office (about 5m away from the house - on the other side of the wall where my hub 5 lives) Both house and office are very well insulated House speeds showing as 380+, office speed between 9 and 30 with a great deal of variation throughout the day. Measured on Speedchecker I can't use the Wifi Home Scan - it times out regardless of when and which room I try, I get an Oops try again later message. (have tried deleting the app etc but to no avail) I think I might be able to use a Wifi Pod to sort this out, but am in a catch 22 as I can't do the scan to show the speeds. First question - How can I order one if I can't do the scan? Prior to joining VM my router was under the stairs connected to the office via an ethernet cable which now sits unused as VM couldn't fit the hub5 in the same place, so it's situated in the living room. Additional question - Is there another way to utilise the ethernet cable to help, given that it's miles away from the router? Any help would be greatly appreciated and possibly save my marriage as Mrs is sick of me working in the kitchen....Network speed
Good evening everyone! I have just signed a new contract with Virgin Media and currently awaiting for my appointment on the 29th. I mainly picked VM as I am already an O2 customer and wanted to take advantage of the Volt benefits. I have noticed however that the O2 signal in my new flat is awful! Super slow and non existent. Should I be worried about my future broadband as well? Thank you!Bad WiFi but normal download speed
Hello, I’m having a very frustrating issue. I live in a 2 up, 2 down with one other person and have M350 fibre Upon running speed tests, I am mostly getting about 370mbps, however my internet is dreadful. If we are both scrolling on our phones it is incredible slow and when working from home I need to use an ethernet to get a decent connection. we have had a technician out twice but they have been unable to find any issues. It’s honestly dreadful. Surely 350mbps is enough to handle 2 people. also, WM Connect is unable to find my hub, no matter how may times I go through the set up or reset the hub. I don’t know what to do and unable to find any answers plesse can someone help with some form of solution.Regular drops in speed and repeated router reboots
I've been having issues with my broadband speed for about a week now. I'm on Gig1 full fibe, with a Hub 4 router, and regularly get 950-985 Mbps download and about 100 Mbps upload. On 5 Sept, I began to notice that webpages were loading incredibly slow, and performed a speed test. The download speed had dropped to 12.88 Mbps, but the upload speed was 104.80 Mbps. I turned the router off, and unplugged it for a few minutes, then plugged it back in. After a while I did another speed test and it was 945.93 and 104.88 Mbps. I had the same problem yesterday, 10 Sept, with speeds of 0.91 Mbps and 102.43 Mbps. Again, after cycling the router, speeds were 945.98 and 104.89 Mbps. The same problem then hit today, so bad that I couldn't even get speed test page to load. I tried to access the Internet through the Hub 4 router on both desktop (via Ethernet), and on mobile (via WiFi). Both encountered same issue. I finally got the speed test to work on my mobile, which registered 0.10 Mbps download. I then tried logging into my account through the My Virgin Media app. When I tried to move on from the email login page I got a "Sorry, something's gone wrong" page, with the error code: FSB50. I was able to login to the router (192.168.0.1) and ran the Network Diagnostic Tool, but all this said was that "Your home network has a few problems", without giving further details. I've had to access My Virgin Media account through mobile data. I ran through a Service status check and received an error for broadband, with an "Intermittent signal in your area" message. After repeating the same routine (cycling the router), the problem was fixed - to a point. unfortunately, I'm getting 1/2 my download speed, at 437.49 Mbps, while the upload speed is consistent at 104.84 Mbps. Is it the signal itself, or the Hub 4 router? I can't be expected to repeatedly cycle the router if this is going to be a regular occurrence.Speed still not fixed
Engineer visited my home weeks ago and confirmed the box in the street had an issue and that a team would be out to look at it within 2 weeks. Safe to say this has not happened and I still only getting half the speed I am paying for and know the speed it is capable of. Could anyone help get a team out to deal with it?Green light blinking since 5pm
Today I haae a blinking green light since around 5pm. I have checked all cables, reset etc and unplugged everything. And still getting the blinking green light. Status states there are no issues. Yet most likely there is. This whole week the service has been up and down and it's really frustrating. As I work from home and require my Internet to be up at all times. I have had this usse since upgrading and getting the new 1gb hub. Side note: I went for the 1gb package and from day one I have not come close to the speed I upgraded to. Considering virgin can see what customers are receiving they should know who is not getting the speed they are paying for.Hub 3 red light and intermittent speed and connection
Hi, My Hub 3 has had a red light for the last few weeks and in the last week I've had much worse signal around my house, the speed has been really intermittent and I've has several dropped connections in the last few days. I've restarted the hub via the app and the pin hole on the back but it makes no difference. The customer service rep I chatted to said that the red light is because it needs an update but that the updates are automatic so couldn't tell me when it will be done. This doesn't sound quite right to me! From other forums/questions it looks like this could be overheating and the hub needs to be replaced. Can anybody help??VM 1GIG TPLink Router - Broadband goes down daily
Hi all, I have VM 1GIG Broadband package in modem mode using an Omada TP-Link Router and LAN, AP’s etc. Roughly on a daily basis the broadband goes down, there’s no distinct pattern and it occurs most days. Outage can last from 60seconds to 5minutes. I have switched the HUB5 back into Router mode to enable monitoring/testing and I do get some dropped packets, is the amount acceptable? (see TBB graph). Also, could someone please help me with he HUB5 router logs? I don’t really know what I should be looking for - does it look ok?
