Testing your WiFi speed with the Connect app


The Virgin Media Connect app is the master control unit for your WiFi that helps get your Virgin Media broadband up and running and allows you to run a WiFi home scan to smooth out any snags. Running a home scan lets us see if you have a network problem before recommending additional Pods - here's how to do it in three simple steps.

1. Download the Virgin Media Connect app

Download our Connect app on Play Store or App Store.

2. Run a home scan

Login and select the 'home scan' option on the home screen.

3. Test your WiFi performance

The app will let you know if there are any issues and will recommend WiFi Pods if it will help solve them.

Follow the instructions below to download the Virgin Media Connect app and get the green light on whether you need extra Pods or not!

Meet our signal-boosting mesh WiFi Pods

Part of WiFi Max, our genius WiFi Pods pack in advanced mesh WiFi tech, and work with your intelligent WiFi-powered Hub to bring you WiFi in more places around your home.

We’re so confident about this, we’ve launched our WiFi guarantee. This means if you don’t get download speeds of at least 20Mbps in every room, and our WiFi Pods don’t do the trick, we’ll pop £100 credit on your next bill.

Exceptional features of WiFi Max

Stay connected with problem-sorting Intelligent WiFi

Thanks to Intelligent WiFi technology, our Hub and Pods learn how, where and when you use your WiFi. So, you can relax, while your WiFi network automatically looks after itself.

Channel optimisation

We’ve added more channels to our existing Intelligent WiFi channel optimisation tech, which helps to keep your gadgets out of traffic jams. With extra GHz channels available, Intelligent WiFi reduces WiFi traffic by finding quiet channels to use.

Adaptive band steering

We've improved our band steering system to make sure more of your devices use the 5GHz frequency - the best option for stronger, faster WiFi.

In-home roaming

This feature helps to work out whether it's better to connect your device to your WiFi Pod or Hub as you (and your devices) move about. It keeps an eye on WiFi signal strength and how busy things are at certain times of day to pick the best option.

How WiFi Max Pods work

Our WiFi Pods give you more reliable browsing, gaming and show-streaming power, right where you need it. And you only have to plug them in to play on. To get the most from a WiFi Pod, simply plug it into a socket halfway between a strong-signal spot and weak-signal spot in your home.

And make sure you grab our free Virgin Media Connect app. With it, you can test your speeds, keep track of all your WiFi Pods and connected devices, tackle common WiFi hiccups, get WiFi tips and loads more.
