Hi all 

had a new smart hub installed 2 weeks ago

Download speed used to be 21-22mb with previous smarthub

now its never above 19mb with smart hub2

dsl checker confirms 22mb

smart connection is off on the hub

any ideas please?

thanks

@Golfather 

Are you measuring the speed using an Ethernet cable?

Try turning Smart Setup off.

Thanks for the reply

tried with lan connection and getting 18.71!

so no better, infact worse than my 2.4ghz wifi

That is sync speed, you are measuring download/throughput speed which will always be lower due to protocol overheads.

Ok thanks

i think the point was that the speed achieved using the previous hub was faster than current new smart hub

is there anything else i can do ?
