I have been using the older Technicolour router and when I do a speedtest get about 17 Mbps. I got sent out a new Hub 0 but when I do the same speed test I only get around 10 Mbps. Plusnet then sent me out another one however it is the same. I have removed the faceplate from the BT socket and only had the router in the main socket and still have this issue. Have moved back and forth between old and new router and always the same result.
Any ideas why this could be?
Many thanks

And for the Technicolour - Can't seem to find anything like the same info that is above for the Hub0

On another note. I went and bought a new Belkin AC1200 AC router thinking this might be much better. However I am getting roughtly the same speeds as the Technicolour. However it only seems to connect if its the only thing plugged into the socket. No matter what else is plugged in (phone, sky box etc) the Belkin router won't even connect. Is this a faulty router?

If the Belkin doesn't connect when there's a phone plugged in, that suggests a faulty microfilter, or plugging it in without a microfilter.
Was there any particular reason for getting the Hub Zero? There is probably not much difference in performance between the Hub Zero and Technicolor 582n.

It's best to not plug and unplug, switch off and on, or reboot modem/routers too frequently, because there's an automated system which would see all the disconnections as a problem, and slow down your speed in an attempt to fix the problem. I prefer to only do one change a day, and seeing how it goes for the day, but maybe 3 or 4 changes in a day shouldn't cause any adverse effects, if they are spread out so that there's an hour or so between them.
