The Virgin Media Connect app was specially designed to work with our Hub 3. If you’ve got a Hub 4 or Hub 5, you can still use the Connect app to set up your Hub, connect to over 4.3 million WiFi hotspots and find help and support. We’ll be rolling out more features to Hub 4 users soon, so keep an eye on the app.
If you’re a Virgin Mobile customer, you can check your usage through the app as well.
Once you’ve linked the Virgin Media Connect app to your Hub 3, you’ll see your network details on the Home tab of the app.
To change your network name and password, go to the Broadband tab, tap the menu symbol in the top right corner and tap on WiFi networks. Here you can change your network name (SSID) and password, choose which WiFi network you want to broadcast, and change your Hub's settings password.
Remember that whenever you change your network name or password, you'll need to reconnect all your devices to the WiFi again.
To share your WiFi details, simply show your friends the Home page of the app, or scan a QR code then click to share your details.
