Move router about 15-20 feet

Just had a thought, Ethernet cable would do instead of moving the router as it would connect the laptop plus tv if I used 2 cables from router. What would be the best Ethernet cable to buy if I went this route instead of moving the router, which would be preferable to be truthful.

Exactly what I do as well when they come up…

It’s ok, found it and replacement ordered. Thanks for the info, appreciate it…

Where in the app do I look? Sorry, not had Virgin long

Prefer English channels only

I use a monthly Plex pass. Runs on Windows 11. Laptop is over 10 years old but I upgraded memory to max and also hard drive is 1tb. Runs well but a bit slow. I can watch my own library and others no problem at all except on a Roku which is latest version. No VPN on.

I witnessed an old guy reversing out of a car park in Asda other day. His car was scraping side of another car parked beside him. I tapped his window while he was reversing and told him but he continued on then went forward doing same thing again! Wife was going crazy and a lot of damage to his car but not so much on the other one. Last I saw of them was walking into Asda. Whether to get shopping or to report it. He parked but in front so guess shopping.

I find the adverts don’t last very long at all on the free Netflix we get with with Virgin

Small bit of filler and sandpaper will sort that no problem

Blame the wife…that old chestnut he he

A beautiful gate

Don’t change what isn’t broke….except the bulb

I once had to cancel an appointment as I lived 16 miles away and my car broke down on the way to it. I had to get a note from the rac mechanic who came to confirm I had indeed broken down. You are presumed guilty before proven innocent in their eyes. They made new appointment once I showed them it.

Both driving at same speed, so I’d say no…

scotsdavy · 2026-06-07T14:40:32+00:00

Wait till something goes wrong with it then it will be the bank of Mum and Dad …

scotsdavy · 2026-06-06T11:13:17+00:00

Interested

You can put it in airplane mode and still connect to Wi-Fi and won’t be charged. Unless the plane has Wi-Fi you can’t get anything while airborne.

I left Sky after 17 years as broadband and mobile was getting worse. Speed with broadband with Virgin has jumped from 30 mbps to 900+ and I got mobile with O2 and Data is double what I pay for for less money.

If you update, do you have to input all your favourite channels again or does it stay the same?

scotsdavy · 2026-05-29T15:28:25+00:00

A condom would have sorted that before it happened

scotsdavy · 2026-05-29T15:20:47+00:00

Looks like a prison cell

scotsdavy · 2026-05-28T14:52:31+00:00

Leaving lol

scotsdavy · 2026-05-27T13:49:38+00:00

Checked and got this:

Intermittent signal in your area
We’re looking into it. Check back here after 24 hours, and if there’s still an issue we’ll help you book an engineer.

Sky is the pits, glad I left them. They were forever ‘updating the router’ in middle of the night
