Speed Not As Estimated

had my fibre connection up for about 6 hours now and the download speed wont go any faster than  34 Mbps upload speed is around 13mbps . checked a few times and its not the speed i was estimated at when i signed up. Estimated download speed: 62 Mbps  Estimated upload speed: 20 Mbps . How long  a wait  is it until i get the speed im paying for?
cheers

I'v got new a connection up a few hours and I had a similar problem you had.. If you ring Customer Service - they will correct the speed profile for you and it will be done by tomorrow.

Hi flamazine,
Sorry for the delay in replying.
Are you connecting wired or wireless to your router? I've had a look at your connection and account and you should be seeing speeds in the high 70Mb/s, can you try a <a href="http://community.plus.net/library/broadband/fibre-help-how-to-set-up-a-pppoe-dialler-in-vistawindows-7/>PPPoE</a> connection and see if there's any difference?

Re: Speed Not As Estimated

I have connected using both wireless and Ethernet . When ionwireless i get 15-20 Mbps. On ethernet 70Mbps  so i must have a problem with my wireless or is this about normal for wireless connection.

Re: Speed Not As Estimated

I'd suggest tweaking your wireless settings. You can do this at <a href="http://www.plus.net/support/broadband/wireless_broadband/wireless_signal.shtml">here</a>. This should help.
