New record number of wifi cutouts in a day?

Postby JessPlaysGames » August 27th, 2017, 9:29 am

@princechromey @pinkteddyx64

The current record is 37. So far today the wifi has cut out 12 times, including 7 times in an hour. Looks like today is going to beat 37 :(

You ought to complain on the Virgin Media Community (and blame James_W for the issue as well!).

Get your SIM going and use 4G tethering - 25GB full speed data for £26 is an offer I wouldn't refuse, especially as you can use it for tethering.

:yep:

Seems like it'll just be second place today though, unlikely to reach 37 now. It's on 20.

Get a sim from there and get the £18 goodybag - that'll keep you going!

Here you go then Kyx :)

Get one of these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/222508741585 (not as cheap as Gumtree but still reasonably priced), get a Giffgaff SIM from my affiliate link (with the £18 9GB goodybag) and you're all set :) If you post on the Giffgaff Community as well (General Discussion, Forum Games, Help & Support) your usage will be very cheap or even free.

35 so far today :mad:

And my TED Talks video has taken over ten minutes to buffer and it's still only buffered by less than a second :mad:

Complaining on TBAAJ isn't going to resolve it.

Complaining on Virgin's community might get the point across.

Switching to a different provider long term (i.e. Sky), or using an alternative approach (such as 4G tethering short term, or using a 4G router and a 4G SIM short to medium term) is likely to result in a good and effective solution. :yep:

But I'm not spending any money until I get to uni because they say you should arrive with £200 to £500 and I only have £88

The video has taken over 35 minutes now and the wifi ha cut out 78 times today, so I'm gonna see if I can watch it on YouTube instead of the TED Talks app :mad:
