My SH3 is in modem mode, pretty sure my router is connected to port 1. Can't check right now though as I'm away until tomorrow night

How long did it take after you contacted VM to get your Volt benefits? I've had an O2 Sim now for 2 weeks and no sign of my Volt benefits. Haven't contacted either O2 or VM yet

I posted on VM's Volt benefit facebook page https://www.facebook.com/virginmedia/posts/5049341688412482 - they directed me to sms then whatsapp chat (as it was quicker) - got it sorted quickly. Still waiting on the mobile side but no major rush for that one - 07533051809
Contacted them on Wednesday, SH4 delivered today (arranged day delivery).

Well this is my graph for the last 8 hours the first block of red is when an engineer was here (evidently not worked) and the last block of red ignore router was off long story.
so does anyone have any ideas? Engineer went into the cabinet changed my plug over to another and also said it was drawing too much power so he fixed that and then said if it doesn’t fix it it could be noise in area from another house.. surely not please help

I have a small problem with the 3.1 Downstream QAM and to me it's noise on the line but VM keep saying it's ok!! when it's clearly not, I have suffered from noise before but it's never effected my speeds in any way.
Look it's changed again it should be 4096
Just done a speedtest
Maybe post your hubs stats over on VM forum.

I got my o2 sim on 22nd Nov and got my BB speed upgrade 10th Dec.
I didn't contact VM or o2. (not got my double data yet though)
I went for the £6 sim as that is plenty for my uses.
Originally had £9 VM sim and BB @ 200Mbps now 350Mbps for £3 less a month.
I did the same, on 350 which is more like 380MbpsI got my o2 sim on 22nd Nov and got my BB speed upgrade 10th Dec.

Have you posted a thread on the virgin community forums as they are often pretty helpful. Here is mine, it seems to have got worse since I bought a new router.
Not like yours though and I actually don't have any issues gaming.
and found the old router, annoying.....
I’ve literally this minute made a post hopefully I can get sorted as 3 engineers later still no success and I’m losing the will to liveHave you posted a thread on the virgin community forums as they are often pretty helpful. Here is mine, it seems to have got worse since I bought a new router.

Compared to what it was like before - it's hugely better!
This fairly consistent now. My Deco AX60's also report 900+ mbps and they're only 1gb network backhaul. Wish I had the X90s as they have a 2.5gbe port - but meh, I'm happy as it is!
How long will it be until 2.5gbe becomes fairly standard I wonder? Virgin are already talking about 2gig+ internet.
It seems crazy that 1gb is now available - especially when you consider 28k modems aren't that long ago (at least from my perspective!).

I honestly cannot wait until CityFibre finish doing the are a so I have a viable alternative to the farce that is Virgin media. Tried to get them to upgrade to 1GIG and all they do is screw things up offering you terrible deals. Then when you actually try take them up on it they muck it up and say it was wrong. The live chat has to be one of the worst experiences of poor customer services I have ever had. 3 HOURS chatting to someone and got nowhere.

Yes VM CS isn't great - I just whatsapp them now and I get a response fairly quickly usually - but it's fairly generic - but what do you expect?! Though I must admit I have had the problem solved on most occasions.
Excellent! Now you just need to sort out your bufferbloat and you're golden.
The next SuperHub has 2.5Gb but personally I'd rather just go to 10Gb where possible. Obviously if you have APs etc on 2.5 then you need to make sure everything's capable of negotiating, but at least things are heading in the right direction, finally.

@ Quinnaay
Don't keep replying to your own topic, it will be seen to much quicker if you stop bumping it.

I have a draytek 2962 which is a great router but probably overkill for me, but it has some key features that I like (i.e. OpenVPN Server) and a few other bits and pieces - I don't know if there's a way of programmatically or even via the UI in improving this, it does have a plethora of QOS capability which if I'm honest I haven't explored.
