You mentioned DNS in connection with Virgin TV. TV is on a separate channel and internal cables. It doesn't go through the modem or your router. Your are fine on whatever your third-party DNS you were on - Google, Cloudflare or whatever.

I'm hoping someone else here has ideas about your issue. Display your Hub levels on here. Someone might see a level too high or too low, but meantime I would want to eliminate possible causes. Apologies if you already did this.

Try switching your Hub 3 back to router mode with your main router temporarily taken out of the network altogether. If that makes the difference, the problem may be with your main router. Having eliminated the Hub then try taking your router back to factory settings, let it update and then reintroduce your settings one at a time.

If taking the Hub back to router mode makes no difference, then the problem is with the Hub or your connection. Either way you would need to contact CS because your service is being affected. First thing in the morning is the best time on a week day.
No QOS in use.

The TV breaks within a week (on demand, recording and apps) if the V6 doesn't see Virgin DNS servers. Had this problem for months and this was the only fix.

Did a full reset last night.
