Can't you just hotspot from your phone as its only a few days? Should be okay for general browsing and work in most cases?

I am gonna try that tomorrow luckily I’m doing a final viewing before exchange. I’m assuming for now though the signal won’t be good enough, I get no 4G indoors at all here but I am moving back to a busier area so maybe better.
Can you just try mobile data to rule out VM?Anybody having a problem logging into....

I've tried various dns providers and still have the same problem, just trying to workout if it's virgin problem or my router is causing the problem.

Working absolutely fine for me, I've had no issues whatsoever. Sorry that isn't a more helpful reply

Banks are the bane for me for some reason, mostly I seem to stumble on the reason, but this time I'm at a loss.
It's all helpful!

I have to say I'm loving my VM 1Gig connection. I've ran a CAT8 cable from the hub 5 Router 2.5GB/s port to a Gigabit switch then to my upstairs PC. I downloaded Assetto Corsa it's 25Gig game, it took 2 minutes! Be even better when I get my 2.5Gig switch.

Bought a 30m one and it's super fast. Got another 20m one coming this time flat. Look for Ibra cables, they never let me down.
Try a different browser, incognito mode, turn off any parenting software, AV, etc.
I bet it’s super duper faster than a cat5e cable.

Look I don't claim to be a networking geek I'm just saying as I find it.
In real world in most homes it will be no different to cat5e/cat6. I run both all over my house and I have 10 GbE networking. Never had an issue.
You seem to have taken every inch of the marketing including the balls.

Nah I just never really looked into it. Just seen a cable and thought decent price. 20 quid for 30m seemed OK to me. Maybes cat5e/cat6 cheaper? I dunno. Happy with what I got though.
IDNet, nice, I couldn't quite commit to the price but happy with Aquiss so far. Would still like to give IDNet a try at some point though out of curiosity.
VM installed FTTP about 4-5 years ago but can't bring myself to go though the pain of dealing with them. Thankfully cityfibre are here now, with ISPs offering faster speed, no mid contract price rises and far superior support that's not designed to send you loopy it's a no brainer.
