You got me thinking about cables as nothing else made much sense Wasnt directly the cales but it is now resolved!!! Rogue device. After a night with it switched off I unplugged everything again and slowly reconnected the ethernet cables to the hub. First one is just to a PC. Pinged fine...

Thank you for your advice. I appreciate your time and suggections. Yes I am starting to suspect the Virgin Hub (they havent got the best of reputations). But I hoped a factory reset I did might resolve that. Sadly it dibnt. I also tried a laptop I have with a couple of different cables and...

I must say I am surprised what an impact QoS has on internet speed. I have an Asus CT8 (dual router setup). Must say the performance of the Mesh is amazing. Fixed my wifi issues I had with my previous setup of a WRT32x router and wifi extenders. But I also have Gig1 Virgin Internet. Now that...
