Re: Virgin internet connection problem

Same issue here, Sky Stream Puck connected via Ethernet to Virgin Hub 3, everything in the house works fine over ethernet/wifi but Sky doesnt, thankfully we have a smart tv that's also connected via WiFi so we can still stream stuff.

Re: Virgin internet connection problem

Honestly it's becoming a joke now hope they are giving us compensation for this

Re: Virgin internet connection problem

Yes a bit of transparency wouldn't go amiss here.

Where does the problem lie? Virgin or Sky?

Re: Virgin internet connection problem

I also look forward to compensation. But the major issue is it's our only TV. My poorly 7 year old who has done all his homework and read all morning now thinks I've conned him when telling him he could watch tv this afternoon.

Re: Virgin internet connection problem

I can't see that it's virgin, I was on line with them for an hour checking everything, Guy was really good and knowledgeable, tried splitting router etc and he said couldn't find any issues which goes with fact everything else is working. Also said that virgin had not done any update over night to firmware etc. when I asked this question to Sky they just said they don't know. So seems more likely Sky have updated something IMO

Re: Virgin internet connection problem

This is what I got from Sky on Twitter 

 

OK, here’s a few basic things to check:

Power cable: check both ends of the power cable to make sure it's securely connected and plugged in at the mains. Loose cables can cause problems.

Placement: where you keep the Sky Glass is important. Here are some suggestions:
Make sure the Sky Glass is well ventilated.
Keep the Sky Glass or router away from heat, such as vents on electronic devices, radiators and direct sunlight.
Avoid placing your Sky Glass on a carpet or in an enclosed space like a cabinet. Allow at least 10cm of space above and on all sides.
Don't stack other devices beneath, on top of, or beside your Sky Glass.

HDMI input: if you have other devices connected, for example a games console, check which HDMI input you’re using.

Try another channel: if the issue is only happening on one channel, it could be a broadcast issue. Thanks, Emma

It's likely a mix of both as mine is working so it's not entirely one sided.

Yeah it's none of that it's not something on the user side at all.
