Capped Broadband ?

I have BT Fibre 2 which has performed brilliantly for ages now.  However it has recently slowed from a decent 50-60 Mbps to appearing to be capped at 20 Mbps,  Ethernet speed tests produce a regular 18-19 Mbps. A quiet line test seemed to be ok.

Is there anything I can do without a BT intervention?

Re: Capped Broadband ?


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 . 

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

Re: Capped Broadband ?

You've cut off the important information in the screenshot of the hub, the data rate, max data rate and noise margin. Does your phone have dial tone?

Re: Capped Broadband ?

that speed is terrible  have you tried taking bottom faceplate off then connecting filter to test socket and then hub to filter and post new stats

have you been having problems with hub dropping connection? often?

I'm afraid you are going to have to bite the bullet and report the fault to Customer Services 0800 800150 Its possibly a faulty/misconfigured port in the cabinet.
