Re: Low speed!! On Unlimited fibre 80/20

My speed is awful tonight on pcl-ag02. It only happens around 2030-2200 gmt. I thought it could be my exchange, but in view of other reports & threads I think it's Plusnet's servers not being able to cope!

Re: Low speed!! On Unlimited fibre 80/20

Now one of the reasons I shouldn't have moved to PN Fibre and should have chose BT infinity instead!

Well Jamie I thought it was something wrong here, but it's not the case. During the day the speed is fine. (my BT IP Profile is still the usual 59.84, so really that happy!)

Re: Low speed!! On Unlimited fibre 80/20

Hi there,
Sorry to hear that you're experiencing slow speeds.
Would it be possible if you could post some information so we can see what is going on?

  • Firstly a speed test at http://speedtest.btwholesale.com and run further diagnostic after the test has completed

  • Check which gateway you're on at http://usertools.plus.net/@gateway/

  • Run a pingpath command, to run the pingpath command you'd need to open a command prompt and type the following, 'pathping ntp.plus.net -q 50'


If you could post the results that would be great.
Thanks,
Chris

Hi Chris, Unfortunately can't retrieve the ping command due to having a Mac, but from speedtest.net It is around 200ms

Here is the BBC IPLayer test. Hope this helps!! Also have the decency to upload the fault on the service status page @ plus.net website to inform people! I'm on PCL-AG08
