Full Fibre 900 Speeds all over the Place .

Hi Guys, 

Had Fibre 900 fer a few Months now but Finding it increasingly erratic ... Using Ookla  to Test & Fast.com 

Each are all over the place

Test first time get 345Mbps.....

Test Second time 533Mbps..

Test a Third time 399Mbps...

Plus, using Ookla which Server do you Pick ??  the VERY nearest one to Me is 44 Miles away (TNP Ltd) or (Exascale Ltd)

Using "Fast"...Best I have EVER got out of "fast" is 

440Mbps (Test One)

540Mbps (Test Two) 

& can Someone tell me what the Figures are showing up in the Bottom Bar of the "Fast Test Screen" 

"settings" is a "Given"  but what are the other Numbers ?? I have a Feeling they are what my Connection is "Capable of"  Correct ??????????????  

 960MB 120MB

@TheSeasider 

I am on the same BT 900 / 110Mbps package as you (using my own Asus Router) and get these results which I'm sure isn't just correct.

I can't get anywhere close to that even your latency is only 2 SECONDS!!!! Mines way off at 13 or 14 seconds. Its just crazy this 900 fibre. I'm too am using my own router (TP-Link Archer C7). On my old BT SH2 I was getting lower (a lot lower). than the C7. The speed just bounces all over & if you use Ookla you get so many different servers to try & EVERY SINGLE ONE comes back with a different speed.
My brain hurts just trying to think about it

Mine can vary depending on what server is chosen, I have had Latency as high as 16 - 18 before now.

I do find the Ookla varying speeds also and changing server does return different results.

FTTP 1st Test.jpg

Latency to London 200 miles away.

Higher Latency readings to other servers.
