jambos are go! Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 not yet I had a look at their website and it only seemed free if you upgraded Tell them you are having intermittent problems and there is a chance they will sent you an integrated Virgin Hub featuring an integrated modem an wireless router. I had problems and they said they would just sent a new hub rather than send someone out. I installed it. No certainty though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hansel Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 I recently changed to that new fibre optic wireless modem thingy. The bees knees! If you get a seperate router you will end up with loads more wires, as you'd need to connect router and modem together and both need their individual AC power supply, which makes a mockery of the word "wireless" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N User Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Virgin have got a "Superhub" It is in fact - Super. I highly reccomend it. It is the virgin modem and wireless router in one. Phone them up - although they may try and charge you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you threaten to leave Virgin, they will slash your monthly bill and bend over backwards to keep you as a customer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
