Not sure why you need a ne one, but you may find an adsl one in the VM onlien shop.
VM online shop can be found here :-
http://accessories.virginmedia.com/w...e/Default.aspx

Or e-mail tech support if your modem isn't upto the BB speeds you need, and they should order you a new one. I had to and even though it was a two week wait for a reply, it came 24 hours after I recieved their e-mail.


Hope this helps.

VirginMedia do NOT sell Cable/ADSL modems. Period.

If your Cable/ADSL modem, has 'broke' contact Customer Services! :rolleyes:

Just to add, modems are not available from the VM webstore.;)

Don't trust that page.

Anyway there used to be a page you could fill out on virginmedia.com to get a Virgin 255 modem but i can't find it anymore.

Why not? It was put up after further testing was carried out on the Ambit modems which identified issues with the 100's and 120's at 20Mbps but not the 200's. Other users on here seem to be fine with the 200 at 20Mbps.

My 200 refused to work at 20, only 16.

Virgin changed it for a 255.

Still I guess they could well have sorted out the problem by now.

Those modems are for use via the telephone socket only.
