About this deal

Virgin Media offers a range of set-top boxes to suit different viewing habits and preferences. In terms of installation, if you've already got a Virgin Media broadband connection up and running, Virgin Media will simply post you the box and you can just plug it in and go. If you're new to Virgin Media it'll be set up the same day as your broadband. This 5x hub is a trial hub and they are giving customer this without telling them. (Well never told me) The Virgin Media Connect app is the control unit for your WiFi. It helps you get your broadband up and running and make the most out of your WiFi experience, all from the comfort of your sofa. Book the right slot: It may seem obvious, but you'll have to be at home when the engineer arrives to set you up. Having apoken to a fair few Virgin Media technicians in our time, we can tell you you would be amazed how many people either forget or simply book a time that was never convenient in the first place

Testing and activation: Once the installation is complete, the technician will test the connection and make sure everything is working correctly. You may need to activate your account online or over the phone before you can start using the broadband service For your Android device, you can try this: Open settings > Apps > Connect App > Storage > Clear data / Clear cache. Virgin Mobile customers:The app will work on a device (iPhone, cellular-enabled iPad, Android phone or cellular-enabled tablet) where a Virgin Mobile SIM is present and the App has verified your SIM (whilst you on the Virgin Mobile data network). If you have got a Pay As You Go plan, remember to register for a My Virgin Media account first). Virgin Media Connect app:Requires compatible iOS/Android mobile or tablet. Virgin Mobile customers: the app will work on a device where a Virgin Mobile SIM is present and setup has been completed. Virgin Fibre customers: the app will work on a device where setup has been completed using My Virgin Media account details. Virgin Fibre customers can use the Connect app on up to 7 devices at any one time and benefit from Virgin Media's WiFi hotspots whilst out and about. For setup: Mobile data connection required for Virgin Mobile customers. Internet (mobile data or WiFi) connection required for Virgin Fibre customers. UK only. Experience varies by location and number of users. It’s not always possible to guarantee that we’ll be able to offer this app on every device, platform and operating system version or variant. Terms and conditions apply. Prior to the Virgin TV 360 box, Virgin Media offered the V6 box, which was introduced in 2016. The V6 box was an upgrade from the previous TiVo box, and offered a faster processor, 4K resolution, and the ability to record six shows at once. The V6 box also featured a range of apps, including Netflix and YouTube, and allowed users to pause, rewind, and record live TV.

My Virgin Media

If you're new to Virgin Media and having your services installed for the first time there are a few things you should look to do both prior to sign-up, and during the (usually around) two-week wait to having your services installed. Unlike previous set-top boxes from Virgin, the TV 360 only needs a Virgin Media broadband connection either wired or over wifi. Previous boxes relied on the same coaxial cable that delivers your broadband being routed to wherever you have your TV, which could cause some installation headaches. The fact you now only need wifi makes installation of the TV 360 much, much easier.

Ready and waiting in the app, we’ve put together a list of commonly asked questions we think you’ll find handy – covering topics like setting up the Hub, how to make the most of the Connect app and way more. Before the TiVo box, Virgin Media offered the V+ box, which was first introduced in 2008. The V+ box offered features such as pause, rewind, and record live TV, as well as the ability to store up to 80 hours of content. The V+ box also supported high-definition content and offered a range of on-demand content. Overall, Virgin Media has continually updated its set-top boxes to offer users the latest technology and features, ensuring that its customers have access to the best possible viewing experience.

Virgin Media is completely unique in the technology it will be bringing into your home, and thus the requirements of the installation of your services are equally unique. Sky needs to bolt a satellite dish onto your home, while most broadband providers are able to use the phone line coming into you home to get you online. Virgin Media has its own, unique cable network which uses a hybrid copper/fibre-optic coaxial cabling system – the same one that used to deliver cable TV in them olden days. Sounds good, right? Read on to find out more about our genius mesh WiFi Pods, the plug-in pals that’ll help keep things running smoothly in your home. Wi-Fi extender pods are currently unavailable (at the moment), likely due to the router mode issue. The WiFi Pods also change settings to stop interferences automatically, such as from your neighbour’s WiFi. You’ll also need to disconnect any existing WiFi boosters to help reduce the WiFi traffic in your home. WiFi Pods are a brilliant and affordable solution for combatting wireless signal dead zones around your home, delivering a strong connection to every nook and cranny.

The current set-top box is the Virgin TV 360 box, which is a compact and sleek device that offers seamless integration with Virgin Media's TV and broadband services. The Virgin TV 360 box supports 4K resolution and HDR content, and comes with a voice-controlled remote for easy navigation. It also offers features such as catch-up TV, on-demand content, and the ability to pause and rewind live TV. However, the biggest issue lies with the fact if you have poor wifi then the app won’t launch so you can’t actually test the area that’s affected… third party speed testers are able to launch and work fine, so it begs the question why can’t virgins in house app do this? (Makes you wonder if they don’t want you to test your signal so you can’t claim compensation..) wifi is still hit and miss even with the boosters, so frustrating. Virgin Media broadband installation process can vary depending on the type of service you choose and the existing infrastructure in your area. Generally, the process involves the following steps: After residing at my property for over 10 years, I was thrilled to learn that Virgin Internet was now available in my area. Without hesitation, I signed up for the 1Gig plan as soon as I saw the Virgin engineers working nearby. During the sign-up process, I informed the sales representative about my struggles with weak Wi-Fi signals in certain areas of my house. They assured me that with my chosen plan, I would be eligible for free Wi-Fi booster pods.Well, Virgin Media will be able to tell you which router you're getting. It won't be the Hub 3 as that's now discontinued. But in the following table let's compare the three anyway so you can see what's what. Know where you want to put your router: Where the technician drills a hole into your home from the exterior wall will be determined by the spot you choose to have your router. Try to choose somewhere as close to the middle of the house as possible to minimise wifi dead zones at the extremes of your home
