If anybody has experienced problems with Virgin media whilst live streaming lately (stream playing in slow motion and buffering ) go into your vm settings and disable flood detection, should solve the problem 👠| |

Log in to your router via your ip address and go into settings, you'll see flood detection with a green tick in the box, just un tick | |

Log into your Router.
Advanced Settings > Security > Firewall
Uncheck "IP flood detection".
Select "Apply Changes". | |

Bang on brother ðŸ‘
It would have fried my noggin to go into such detail!
Don't know if VM are having issues or they're on to us but disabling flood detection seems to work 👠| |

Has anyone had problems using the live streaming this week?
Mine worked a dream v Middlesbrough but had no option to watch v Gillingham. Managed to see the last 9 minutes using sky sports via VM on my phone but there was option to cast to TV.
I can be at the.com Saturday so don’t expect any issues this weekend. | | | |

I had problems for the last game. My downstairs VM box allowed use of the red button on channel 508, which then allowed a choice of games, but my Mini TV box upstairs did not. I thought this was because I needed a newer 360 Mini box,. However, I got on the ;phone today (long wait mind) and the VM technician fixed the problem via an online software upgrade. | | | |

Had the same issue. Couldnt watch the Swans (although Cardiff was available 😡) Last night Plymouth not available.
Whats the best number to phone Virgin? | | | |
| Virgin Media problem on 22:26 - Aug 15 with 3185 views | swan65split |
 good luck on that one, try Twitter , some terrible stories about phone calls, | | | |

if you have a Virgin landline the number is 150. It is a nightmare taking perhaps 30 minutes to get through, but at least it is a free call. I tried to find chat on the webpage before I called and that is very hard to find as well. | | | |

Wouldn’t touch Virgin with barge pole.
Their reputation here,anyway,is terrible,especially when it comes to faults

150 and that telephone number, are basically the same number - they will both take you through to the same menu. | |
| Everyday above ground ... Is a good day! 😎 |

Yes, but you need the 0345 number if you do not have a VM landline. You still enter the same system and face a long wait though. [Post edited 16 Aug 2024 14:53]

I found it much better and easier to simply ditch Virgin media and get Youfibre in (thanks Ged) which has better speeds, is cheaper and more reliable and the rest is history.
V, just like Sky are expensive cac. | | | |

Broadband looks good, but if you want TV (especially Sky and TNT) how do you manage that? The Youfibre website only seems to cover BB. | | | |

I used 150 but ended up being shouted at by a Complaints Manager in New Delhi.
My VM contract ends in April next year, unlikely I’ll be a customer n May. | | | |
| Virgin Media problem on 20:37 - Aug 16 with 2859 views | Ceejay |
Thanks for reply.
I think my problem was slightly different as it was using V6 box. I was given a priority call to India and told my issue could only be solved with a new contract starting there and then at extra cost £8-£9 per month taking me to almost £100. VM are advertising this new Sky+ service as a “no extra cost” to replace Sky arena.
I have gone to pm them on X-twitter and been advised a new remote and software upgrade will sort it so have a few more days to wait on delivery.
Hope it is sorted but I’m not impressed by VM continual switching of position during our correspondence - almost £1100 per year for abuse when I refuse a new and unnecessary contract. | | | |

I had issues for over a year they daus it was at my end, a few months ago they then said they found an issue with my connection at their end and "fixed" it had an upgrade to 365 and new remote like you are having, i went through twits.
there was an issue first game, but seems ok now, but they are on trial! | | | |

Apparently there are ways and means. We don't care, we just watch the streaming services, iplayer, ITVX etc. it costs us 80 quid per month with license fee.
Virgin,in our experienc were awful. The BB constantly cut out and speeds dropped, the phone calls took forever and I frequently had to hang up after waits of over 40 mins, the web chats were better but still not good. They have a bad customer service rating and the prices are always rising so we binned them. | | | |

How do you go about logging in to the router ? | | | |
| Virgin Media problem on 21:47 - Aug 17 with 2496 views | EagleEye |
Nice one. Googled it - job done for now.
Has Virgin actually changed the settings then for some reason ? For some reason my streams only started playing up today … hopefully this will fix it | | | |
