Re: Slow internet

@Gel @The information in your link is outdated and not relevant to FTTC connections. If the OP has consistent slowdowns at peak times which is unusual on FTTC a possible cause is congestion in the backhaul at the exchange known as a hot VLAN. The problem is Openreach will never admit it without a lot of pressure from Plusnet.

@Sug12340  What are you speeds like early in the day and what are your router sync speeds, from the diagnostics page on your Hub or whatever router you are using?

Hi there,

I'm really sorry to see you're having speed issues.

If you can PM me your account username, I'll be happy to take a look at that for you. 

From 31st October 2022, I no longer have a regular presence here as I’ve moved on to a new role.
