I am in Somerset and my BB has been rock solid for years.

Normal speed test:
Thu 30/04/2020 10:54 35.54 Mbps 35.54 Mbps 5.13 Mbps

But today it did not feel right so did speed test:
Sat 10/10/2020 10:26 14.28 Mbps 34.90 Mbps 0.87 Mbps
Sat 10/10/2020 10:29 24.69 Mbps 1.05 Mbps 4.82 Mbps
Sat 10/10/2020 10:31 14.18 Mbps 0.92 Mbps 0.78 Mbps

@keithwjones

There could be a number of reasons for a drop in speed.

Are you running these wired or wireless?

in order for the forum members to help please can you post the stats from your router (if hub enter 192.168.1.254 in your browser) and if HH5 then go to troubleshooting then helpdesk and if HH6/SH2 then advanced settings then technical log information .

Have you tried the quiet line test? - dial 17070 option 2 - should hear nothing - best done with a corded phone. if cordless phone you may hear a 'dull hum' which is normal

enter your phone number and post results remember to delete number https://www.broadbandchecker.btwholesale.com/#/ADSL

Someone may then be able to offer help/assistance/suggestions to your problem

Thanks for suggestions, was just going to start as requested.

But checked speeds and they are back at normal levels.

Thank you.
