We’re aware of an issue affecting some customers using a WiFi connection on our Hub 3.0 router while gaming online. We apologise for any frustration and inconvenience caused.

We’ve identified the problem and a fix will be rolled out by tomorrow morning (Saturday 29 September). No action will need to be taken by yourselves.

The problem is caused by a WiFi channel testing feature on the Hub 3.0. A technical issue occurring during this test may result in greater lag when playing games online. Other online activity is unaffected.


This is where VM have become incredibly stupid. They added "Smart WiFi" to the Hub 3.0. You'd have thought they'd learned the lesson from the MacBook WiFi horror story that took 2 years to resolve with a new OS that removed the aggressive WiFi "Smart WiFi" function which cause a MacBook to switch channels when it thought it should.

Jeez.
