Where cc:33:bb:7f:ff:68 is the 2.4ghz homehub 4 wifi MAC address.

[freddie5]

After a few weeks of rock solid 20 Mbps wirelessly, back down to 15/16Mbps.

Always after a HH4 powercycle - the same good speed for a few weeks, then back down to 15/16Mbps.

[freddie5]

For the past 2 weeks my speedtest results have been approx 20Mbps, (between 19.5 - 20.5), morning, noon, night, weekdays or weekends.

Now back to this. Upload speed is always 5Mbps regardless.

"STA (Homehub 4 MAC address removed) IEEE 802.11: WiFi registration failed"

Are you using the 802.11n signal, because that error relates to when the Wireless N drops, it does mean a range loss, but you may want to enter the router and disable it to just b/g and see if the error fades away. 

802.11n is extremely sensitive and not all devices are inter-compatible as smoothly as they should be, or are on b/g signals, you might want to consider powerline instead.

Sony devices in paticular have poor N signal hardware in them, Vaio laptops etc.

I appreciate what your saying as i have limited knowledge regarding this type of thing.

However, do you not think that  wlan0: STA (Homehub 4 MAC address removed) IEEE 802.11: WiFi registration failed indicates a possible fault with the 2.4ghz wireless side of things within my HH4?? As my understanding leads me to believe WLAN0 is the wireless card within my HH4.

I have noticed a pattern whereas i powercycle my HH4 when i encounter these low speeds, then speeds return to normal for a couple of weeks, proven by running speedtests to indicate 20Mbps at all different times, then bam - speeds drop to approx 15Mbps.

Coupled with the error wlan0: STA (Homehub 4 MAC address removed) IEEE 802.11: WiFi registration failed i am wondering if indeed have a faulty hub??

[freddie5]

How can my speed be so close to my max achievable speed yet still indicate something wrong??

Yet it reports my acceptable speed range to be 16.57 Mbps - 20Mbps??

@freddie5

If you read the "acceptable range" part correct, you will see the figures are the wrong way round. It should read "16.57 Mbps-20 Mbps". It looks like the BTW database has the wrong values for you in their database.

As your current speed is less than 20Mbps, the graph will be red as the 20Mbps figure is the low one in your results. Even if the values were the right way round, your speed is still less than the 16.57Mbps lowest figure, so again the graph should be red.

I would raise a fault with BT online and attach that test results and explain that the range values are the wrong way round. And that your speed is less than the minumum acceptable value.

The "to" figure is always the IP Profile value.
