Hi I’ve upgraded to FTTP from FTTC.
After speed checking with the BT app the router is synched at 512mb down and 73mb up, that’s fine, the problem comes when I carry out a speed test. I’ve also contacted BT several times and they confirm this to be correct.
WiFi various massively depending on what speed test I use, but I haven’t seen anything higher than 340 on latest apple equipment, but more strange is the speeds when connected via Ethernet.
I cannot get anything over 300mb with a cat5e cable connected to the router, I’ve tried two laptops and various cat5e cables and all test the same, the Ethernet driver confirms it’s connected at 1000mbs so I now they are gigabit Ethernet.
Upload speeds are consistently around the 65-70mbs, so that’s fine.
The only other quirk is I’m also getting random disconnects of the Wi-Fi discs, I’ve had these for a while and never had an issue with them on the old smart hub 2.
Has anyone else experienced the hub giving out a lower download speed ?
BT have now agreed to send a new router to see if that makes a difference.
Any other users experiences / thoughts are welcomed.
Thanks.
