Wireless Broadband is coming - Official Launch 31st March

On Monday 31st Virgin launch an official supported Wireless Product

It will be £40 for all BB M customers and existing customers staying on the speed they are on.

For new Broadband L and XL customers and existing customers upgrading to either L or XL it will be free.

If for any reason you downgrade from L or XL within 12 months of getting the free router (either as a new or existing customer) you will be charged £40

Re: Wireless Broadband is coming - Official Launch 31st March

Any idea which wireless router it is?

Personally I think VM are bonkers attempting anything further 'down the line' than the cable modem. The support issues could be terrible!
