Hi how do I order the Wi-Fi pods as can’t get the connect app to work?
Hi all, I noticed for the first time today that the usual virgin media WiFi network isn't there on the tube. Is this being phased out? [MOD EDIT: Please see update on post 111 here]
UNDERSTANDING KEY ASPECTS OF WiFi WiFi is a somewhat notorious, though essential commodity. In many cases, when its behaviour does not meet the user’s perception of the claims made by the ISP (e.g. Virgin Media), the blame is quickly heaped on the IS...
Seeing so many posts about Good, Bad & ugly Wifi, I thought I would post some suggestions for people out there. There are definitely good, midrange & poor routers with quite variable performance wifi. Never expect a mass market product to be the b...
N Warning: Long, dull, a bit technical. NHaving needed to repeat myself a few times, I thought I'd share my understanding of what you might find in a Hub 3's network log when things go wrong, and what it means. First of all, this post is based on my...

Just moved our router into another room downstairs but now my son has no signal at all in his bedroom upstairs (cannot even perform an Ookla speed test). I have been informed by a virgin technician that if speed is below 10mb then that means the hub ...

I’ve been getting my internet through cable for more the 27 years originally with Telecential, via all the intermediate providers to Virgin Media. Once originally set up, it has mostly been reliable except for a few area outages from time to time. Un...
Hi. For the last 3 days the Connect App cannot find my Hub4.Initially the WiFi Pods also lost connection. After talking to customer service I was told the Pods were broken. (Both failing at the same time didn't sound correct).Anyway I reset the Hub4 ...
Took delivery of a new Hub 5 recently but my Pod fails to connect to it. The VM Connect App initially saw the Pod on the network but advised that it was "unconnected". Have since tried it in various rooms and power sockets but it only ever shows a ...
