Very slow internet and regularly drops out

First, I *know* I'm one of the lucky ones during this crisis when all I have to worry about is slow and unreliable internet.  But it's been almost impossible to work from home since lockdown.  Less than 0.1 Mbps and sometimes long outages. I have several tickets open, and been told something different each time I've rung the helpline.  Believed to be an outside line problem.  No-one has called me back with an update.

One helpline assistant insisted it was a router problem, so in desperation I paid £50 to PlusNet for a replacement router. The replacement router did not fix the problem, so I want to return it and get a refund.  What's the return address please?

I expect at the moment there's a long wait for Openreach engineer appointments, but I would appreciate an update.  I don't know how much longer my employer will be patient with me.

Re: Very slow internet and regularly drops out

Hi Will, thank you for the update. Unfortunately it’s not over yet. Very slow again yesterday (think 1 minute to open a small Word document from my employer’s network).
