Well, Ibrahim, I obviously never had to do any of that when I signed up, but then it was some years ago and they weren't Virgin Media at that time.
Sorry, Hannah, if I've unintentionally misled you ...I would just suggest that you get very full instructions from them as to what you have still to do when they leave and make sure you have all the information to hand.

Hi Chris. The software is part toolset and part activation. When you insert the cd, you'll be guided through some screens to set up yourconnection and services such as email, you'll also install diagnostic softwareand probably be offered free trial security software which you can optionally install. When the engineer leaves, the connection will be in apre-activated state. Hanna will have to complete the process on her computer whichneeds to be connected via cable to the modem or supplied router. All the best, Ibrahim. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Hallsworth" <christopherh40@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, February 07, 2010 2:20 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Setting up VirginSure, fully understood. But is the software essential or will it just work natively so to speak.

They won't install it for you as they aren't covered to deal with any existing hardwear such as a computer. This is what I was told when I had VM installed and I had to install the software supplied. -------------------------------------------------- From: "Chris Hallsworth" <christopherh40@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, February 07, 2010 1:44 PM To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [access-uk] Setting up VirginHello all, Hannah will be using Virgin Media as her ISP for her new flat as she has an existing NTL line. Now, will she need to configure anything, or can she just connect via the ethernet or wireless networks once Virgin has installed everything? Thanks for any answers.
