This issue has really got me scratching my head because it's completely illogical.
My father in law has set up a WiFi mesh which has been working fine for the last month or two and then devices started disconnecting from the WiFi overnight. Virgin have been out, scratched their heads, replaced equipment and scratched their heads a bit more.
Tonight I got him to switch the Virgin router to modern only mode so he's just using the mesh as both the Superhub and mesh have the same SSID and are sat next to each other. That's when it got weird.
His Mac which is plugged into the Virgin Superhub lost connectivity, including to the router config page (I know the IP charges in modem mode). The Phillips Hue hub also lost connectivity. The mesh provided internet for about 15 minutes and then lost internet connectivity. I swapped cables, swapped ports and in the end reset the Superhub. The mesh got internet connectivity back but nothing else did. Plugging the Mac and Hue hub into the mesh router gives them connectivity. The mesh router can be plugged into any port on the Superhub and has internet but nothing else does, no matter what port it's plugged into. The Superhub is still not offering WiFi after being reset.
Other than trying another factory reset I'm at a loss as to what to do, this really has got me baffled because it's completely illogical.
