Whole Home Speed

Hi

Wondering if anyone can help? I have BT whole home the 3disc version and I have 500 mb internet connection, I get 480-530 from the 1st disc but when going to the 2nd and 3rd disc’s this drops by over half to around 200mb! I know this is still fast and I do expect some drop off but over 50% seems maybe a bit too much? Both discs have good/excellent connections

 

Thanks

Re: Whole Home Speed

Hi @RavetheDave10 

Which model of Whole Home Wi-Fi discs do you have? Mini / Original / Premium?

Also - what signal strength is showing for the 2nd/3rd discs in the app? This will affect what speed you can achieve through these discs.

Thanks,

Dan-O

Re: Whole Home Speed

Are your discs connected to each other wirelessly or do you have a ethernet backhaul?

If connected wirelessly then a halving of speed would be expected.

Re: Whole Home Speed

Ethernet backhaul is where each disc is connected to a network via the port on the back of the disc rather than wirelessly to each other.
