I posted a few weeks ago regarding a firmware upgrade effecting the 2.5G port on the hub.
Factory reset resolved it.

Once again last night a firmware update has caused the same similar issue.
It seems to work if the port is plugged into a single device but not a network switch.

This appears to be a known issue. Virgin Forum

Looks like the 2.5Gb internet port when connecting to a 2.5Gb network card, now breaks unless 802.03az (Energy Efficient Ethernet) is disabled on my network switch (2.5gb) or my desktop direct.

You may need to go into device manager on your network card, advanced, find energy efficient Ethernet and turn it off

IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE on D-LINK DMS 108 8 port 2.5Gb switch 🙈

Dang

Is there anyway to disable this on the Virgin hub ?
 
No, it will be in the lower levels of the firmware, which cannot be altered.
Thanks for the reply mate.
So sounds like my only option is to spend even more cash and purchase yet another 2.5Gb network switch
 
It's VMs fault that their device is buggy, if you get nowhere with them perhaps open a complaint suggesting they could reimburse you for a suitable switch.
