I recently switched to Unlimited on my fibre connection, and discovered while trying to play a trailer on IMDB on my ipad that it was buffering every few seconds. This was while sitting only 4ft frm the router. A speedtest on the ipad gave around 4mb down and 4mb up.
I plugged the laptop into the router and did some speed tests and got around 35mb, down, and only 3mb up. Sounds not bad, but when I was previously getting around 63 down and 18 up, it's a bit of a drop.
Is this contentiion? (is that even possible on fibre now)
Or something to do with the unlimited package?
Or something to do with pcl-ag05 gateway?
I also noticed ping was a bit higher at around 80ms.
I'll do a few speed tests over the night, and one after midnight if i'm still up at that time.
Regards
Griff

If it seems ok again in the morning i guess you could of got caught on one of the problem gateways and peak time larenct spikes as mentioned in the follwing thread
http://community.plus.net/forum/index.php/topic,111170.48.html
sometimes swapping gateways helps, log into router anf disconnect from internet and connect again after a minute
you can check what gateway you are on here http://community.plus.net/forum/index.php/topic,111170.48.html

Hi Griff,
How is your speed at the moment? I've checked over your line and can't see any current issues.

Hi Chris,
I won't be able to check it until I get in tonight at around 10pm. I'll do another test and report back then.
Thanks.
