Use an ethernet cable to connect your computer s ethernet port to a modem or other network device for example a switch or a router.
Virgin hub ethernet cable.
Next grab the power adapter and plug it into the small round socket underneath the red tab.
I need a longer ethernet cable but am really unsure what to buy cat 5 6 7 or 8 and what else to look for.
I have tried the following things to resolve this issu.
An ethernet cable which is the piece of cable that comes with your virgin media hub or super hub that connects it to your computer.
It literally takes less than 3 minutes to extend or replace your existing length of cable and most importantly the cable is the same specification with no loss of broadband speed or hd video quality.
In that case i would try another port on the router if that doesn t resolve it then change the ethernet cable if the issue remains then whatever is on the other end of that cable is causing some sort of problem.
Please only use the power adapter provided.
This is often a yellow cable with two ends that look exactly the same.
If your computer doesn t have an ethernet port try using a usb to ethernet adapter or a thunderbolt to gigabit ethernet adapter.
I would like the wired connection to work as i play a lot of online games.
So when plugging 2nd device into hub it causes not internet.
Step 3 connect the co axial cable to your new hub.
If you also need to move your virgin media super hub router from one location to another then this method will also work to do that.
A network adapter you ll need this for every computer you want to connect.
Grab the end of the white co axial cable and connect to the pokey out socket on the hub.
Then connect the plug into the nearest wall socket and switch it on.
Hi i am getting terrible wifi on the same floor as my hub so am going to try and move the hub nearer to the centre of the house.
But i can connect to the wifi using my laptop.

I ve just bought a cat 7 ethernet cable to wire my pc in other room directly to my hub 3 in livingroom would this cat 7 cable be 4033136.
In many cases you ll automatically connect to the internet.
