  • My parents' virgin router has an ethernet cable connected which only has one pair of wires terminated in the plug . It disappears under the carpet and along a wall but I've no idea where the other end is.

    Any idea what it might be? They previously had BT internet and I'm wondering if it's left over from that and now redundant.

  • It could quite likely be for a BT or Sky TV box from the past? I think BTs old boxes had to be hard wired.

    You could log onto the GUI of the virgin hub by connecting to the WiFi, entering 192.168.0.1 into a web browser and logging in via the password on the bottom of the modem. This would show anything that is connected.

    Or unplug it and see what stops working.
