Deco M5 on VM HUB3 in modem mode but BQM solid red
Hi,
I have just installed the Deco M5 Mesh on my Virgin Media Broadband with HUB 3 in Modem Mode. Yesterday I kept getting dropouts and I have therefore set up a Broadband Quality Monitor for my new setup. This previously worked with the hub in Router mode, however now with the M5 Mesh and Hub in Modem mode the BQM is solid red. On the Tp-Link web interface, I have tried enabling the IGMP feature but no change. I can't see any other settings on either the app or web interface such as security that I can change. I'm pretty sure I have the IP address correct, I took the IP address straight from the web interface status page.
Any suggestions/help/similar problems
Many thanks
Matt

@TP-Link Hi, many thanks for getting back. I have sorted the BQM problem. It is looking more like an issue of VirginMedia Broadband not being able to communicate with their Router rather than anything wrong with TP-Link tech. I am testing to see whether this is the same in Router mode and Modem mode.
Thanks again

Hi matt, how is the BQM connected to the Deco M5 network, via cable or wireless? Please check if it has been assigned an IP address correctly from the Deco app.

@mattNev Hi,
Yes, There were a lot of Virgin media problems in the area. After all that the Deco units did not work with the Virgin hub in Modem mode. I did a factory reset of the DECO units then went back through the setup. But all seems to work fine after all that.
Many thanks
Matt
