Hi not sure if anyone can help I have the superhub3 from virgin and my WiFi is spotty at best around the house (I do have a repeater and tplinks to help )but still get dead spots ,I have had a look at the BT whole home set of 3 ?189 and another brand slightly cheaper (not so good on reviews)just hoping someone has tried to do a mesh WiFi setup and their opinion on what works

Cheers if you can help or know what is best

I have Ubiquity Unifi Mesh APs wired wire a switch under the stairs, I?ve switched off the Wi-Fi from the SuperHub. I?d tried a bunch of other options including the Linksys ones and always had problems with handoff in the overlapping areas. Three units cover our Victorian mid-terrace really well, on in the front of the house, one at the back (which also covers the garden) and one upstairs in the middle of the house covers the rest.


It?s not the cheapest setup but it?s a long term solution rather than having to constantly fix things and fight with configurations.

I use the Linksys VELOP mesh with my virgin hub. The only time I ever have problems with the Internet is from virgin, not the mesh. Just looked it up and there seems to be sets for 400 quid and sets for 170...not sure what the difernce is on a quick scan, but the one I have was about 400 quid for 3 nodes.

    • A couple of updates to this terrible event:   1) In 2021, two cousins (one from Penge and one from Streatham) were convicted of murder and sentenced to a minimum of 23 years in prison. The Southwark News has a summary of the awful day. https://southwarknews.co.uk/area/dulwich/donnell-rhule-dulwich-knife-murderer-cousins-sentenced-to-life-for-killing-18-year-old/    2) Last week, a female prison officer from Forest Hill was sentenced to eight months in prison for pursuing a relationship with one of the two murderers while at HMP Brixton. https://metro.co.uk/2025/12/15/probation-officer-admits-relationship-prisoner-hmp-belmarsh-25501445/ https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/38203627/probation-officer-jailed-illicit-relationship-murderer-secure-prison/
    • The Commons Public Accounts Committee questioned both the CEO and MD of Capita yesterday, at their last meeting before the recess:  https://committees.parliament.uk/event/25889/formal-meeting-oral-evidence-session/.  In October they'd already expressed concern that Capita might not  be able to efficiently retake over responsibility for the administration within the timescale. Given the joint statement recently issued by Capita and the Cabinet Office I'm not sure that contacting an MP is going to add much, other than venting what I think most of us can probably appreciate of what those affected are likely  to be thinking and feeling; unless perhaps, and I hope it's not needed, to report on deficiencies in the immediate rescue actions.
    • She's responded, but I'm sure I read something in the Guardian consumer advice column. Might be some pointers if you're stuck
    • Two for Ratcliffe, the obvious one:   And one simply because it has the word  "You are nothing but blind fascists" in it.  Oh and a good song too.   Haven't listened to this for years.  Bloody good!
