POOR WIFI SPEED

[ljp1]

Can anyone advise me on what i should do. The bt speed in our area seems to have now dropped to around 1.1MB even though we are all paying for up to 17. It is ridiculously bad and i'm struggling to run my business. Speed drops even lower as the teenager next door comes home from school. Does anyone have any ideas for complaining to BT without being patronised and told i must have it set up wrongly or too many devices connected

From your post you appear to be a business user and need to post here https://business.forums.bt.com/ as this forum is for residential customers

@ljp1 If you're not a business customer and have a residential line and broadband with BT post back with your router stats and we'll be happy to take a look.

stats are

(79,490000) DSL noise margin 26.00 dab upstream 6.10dB downstream

are you a BT business customer???

[ljp1]

No residential not business

the checker shows your estimated speed is 3.5/7.5mb even though it may show up to 17mb your line is to long from the exchange to reach that speed

post the stats from your router

if hh6 then advanced settings then technical log information

if hh5 then troubleshooting then helpdesk

you do realise you should not be running a business on a residential line as per T&C
