Hi,
I had my bandband re-setup about 2 weeks ago, after moving house.
Though, it has been very unreliable, with speeds dropping to 0.10Mbps, most evenings for the last week the service is hardly usable. Sometimes the speed goes upto 12Mbps, but this is rare. I've been using http://www.speedtest.btwholesale.com/
I've tried logging a Support ticket via the Broadband Trouble shooter, but the wizard always says "Thanks for confirming that your broadband is working" and closes the question automatically (which is very frustrating) even we it's make clear that it isn't working..!
Any advice would be most welcome...

As a first shot can you post the information requested here http://community.plus.net/forum/index.php/topic,96155.0.html and after that try using the test socket and see if things improve

Can you do the other tests requested but also are you doing the tests via wireless or wired
As an aside - your upstream needs uncapping but this should be picked up here

Hi Jhaz
I've just tried to have a look at this for you but it seems your router is either off or not configured correctly.
Can you confirm you've got all this working correctly?

Hi Jack T,
Sorry for the delay replying. I've been doing some testing, and discovered that when I connect to the router directly with a network cable, everything works fine and speed is good.
It's when I'm connecting wirelessly, that I'm having the problem.
Could you advise please? do I need a new router? I've been using the TG582n

Morning jhaz,
I'm glad you've managed to locate the problem. Now we know it's wireless, it's worth changing the wireless channel. If you follow that link it might provide some tips to improve the service for you.
