Definitely feels like it's dropping connection every 5-10 minutes or so, even if just briefly. Kids have picked up on it too.

Looks bad, please post some stats:

How to get stats from a VM hub (no need to logon to the hub)

Open a web browser and go to 192.168.0.1 router mode or 192.168.100.1 modem mode

• Click on the “> Check router status” button
• Click on the “Downstream” tab, copy the text and paste into your reply, do not take a screen shot
• Click on the “Upstream” tab, copy the text and paste into your reply
• Click on the “Networking” tab, copy the text and paste into your reply.
• Do NOT post photos or screen shots they will be rejected as they contain MAC addresses. The board software will automatically change MAC addresses to **:** if done as above.

Link to an updated BQM for today, still full of spikes and stuff when nobody was using it overnight and the house was empty all day.

Trying to watch something on Virgin TV Go now, and it keeps stopping and failing to play every few mins (presumably the connection is dropping).

Any help appreciated.

Hopefully one of the VM forum team pick this up, as it's really hard to explain it situation over the phone, and according to the status checker, all is okay, but it's clearly not right.

[Adduxi]

Yes, something is badly amiss.  The power levels posted earlier are in spec but there are some strange looking log entries? To my untrained eye it looks like noise ingress, could be a bad connection, cable wear or something in the street cab?  It will take a VM tech to check this out for you.

If you wait here a day or two a VM Mod should pick this up and discuss.

[richardmc85]

Thank you, will hang on until a VM Mod picks this up and hopefully they can escalate it.

Hi richardmc85

Thank you for reaching out to us in our community and welcome back, sorry hear your connection is dropping, we were able to locate you on our system with the details we have for you, we have checked everything our end and does look OK, however due to your stats we will invite you into a private chat as we would like to arrange a technician just to check the Omni Box, street cabinet and make sure your cable is OK, please look out for the white envelope.

Regards

Paul.
