off peak times
My normal speed is 4000kbps at any time of the day like the pro package should be
Router stats
Bandwidth (Up/Down) [kbps/kbps]:   448 / 5,344
Data Transferred (Sent/Received) [kB/kB]:   0.00 / 0.00
Output Power (Up/Down) [dBm]:   12.0 / 19.5
Line Attenuation (Up/Down) [dB]:   23.0 / 41.0
SN Margin (Up/Down) [dB]:   20.0 / 15.0
IP profile
4500 Kbps on bt and plusnet
Exchange is green and always has been

Re: Help me please

Hi there,
Could you run the BT Speedtester when you see the slowdowns and let us know the results you get?

Re: Help me please

you couldnt have picked a worse time to change your router, never muck around with your connection after about 15:30 and before about 1 hour after daybreak.  All you will have done now is to resynch at a low speed

Isn't there something odd about these test results?  How can an Assured Rate session suddenly become an ordinary one?  I'm afraid I can't help with answers, but I think this question shouldn't be overlooked....

Re: Help me please

The two bt speedtest were taken a hour apart don't know why ones assured and one isn't
So anyone know why I've got a good sync, good ip profile, good router stats but slow download speeds.
What could cause this bad router, exchange equipment any ideas
