Hi,
I hope i've chosen the right forum.
I have Virgin Broadband for Home use and experiencing more and more issues with my Wi-Fi. The broadband is reliable but Wi-Fi drops two or three times a day especially in work MS Teams calls.
It's a HUB 3.0 cable router and the wi-fi light starts flashing until it reconnects.
I've read I could no longer use the Virgin HUB and use it just as a means to my own router (an access point?) or look into installing a mesh wi-fi network.
Can anyone advise on any particular routers - I've looked at ASUS models or mesh network equipment ?
Thank you
If the router isn't restarting, and this issue is just like the WIFI is timing out what you can do is try turning off "Channel Optimisation" in the router settings. I find whenever channel optimisation is on it causes this problem a couple of times per day (as I assume it's switching channels). Turn it off and things are more reliable.
If you are not sure how to do this:
1) Go to http://192.168.0.1/
2) Enter your password (usually on router base if you have not changed it)
3) Go to Advanced Settings
4) Go to Wirelss > Wirless Settings
5) Under Smart WiFi - Disable Channel Optimization
