So curently.....
1 - Virgin Hub - Velop (WAN port) - ethernet socket which connects to the ONQ - POE switch which then feeds the remaining outlets on the ONQ off of which the 2nd Velop node is connected on the 1st floor landing for wired backhaul
When trying to reconnect the NH I have done so slightly differently as follows
2 - Virgin Hub - ethernet socket which connects to the ONQ - POE switch which then feeds the remaining outlets on the ONQ off of which I have connected the NH in the same 1st floor landing spot as the 2nd velop node. Before I got the POE switch the NH worked just fine in this setup using the traditional switch in place of the POE one.
The Virgin hub (awful thing) is not in modem mode as I just never got that working so I just left it in router mode and turned off the wifi and the NH was connected directly and working fine this way before.
The logic behind maybe going back to the NH over the Velop is the perfomance of the NH is pretty great and covers the whole house when placed on the 1st floor just as well as the velop and to have one less box in the pile of spaghetti that sits next to/behind my TV
