Virgin Media problems.

[Dave7]

Just a 'heads up' for anyone on Virgin media.
They have what they call a national outage with thousands of customers losing sound, picture or both.
I have lost radio sound but still have TV sound. My daughter has lost both TV and radio.
Virgin cant give any estimate for when it will be fixed as they have no idea of the cause.
This is the 3rd time in recent months and is a real pain as I use it for radio.

I had to switch the box off and on to get it mostly working. I say mostly working because I can get all the apps, all my recordings, and every tv channel except BBC1. Currently using it without problem to watch the Giro on HBO Max, will try BBC1 again once Pointless comes on.

BBC1 seems to be working ok now, now watching Pointless.

Use your phone data connection to keep radio going.

Perfect here in Lowestoft.....

No problem with Virgin media here today, but I've more frequent outages with them than anyone else.

I like the speed, but their infrastructure /technology doesn't seem nearly as reliable/resilient as Openreach's old copper pairs. We've had numerous short outages, and about four significant ones in about 20 months.

At some point I'll try Openreach full fibre.
