Re: Do I need a coax cable for my v6 box? All Virginmedia TV need a coaxial connection to the virginmedia network, the wireless is only used for internet connected content like iPlayer, Prime etc the live channels still come down the coaxial cable.

Do you need coax cable for Virgin TV?

Re: Do I need a coax cable

All Virginmedia TV boxes require the coaxial connection from the VM network, they only use the wireless connection for On Demand, EPG, Apps etc, to be able to get the live TV signal a coax connection is needed.

Can Virgin V6 box be wireless?

How do I connect my Virgin V6 box to Wifi? If you didn't use the ethernet cable to connect your set-top box to your Hub because they're more than 3 meters apart, you can connect it to Wifi although it's recommended to just get a longer cable if possible as performance can be reduced when using Wifi.
