plusnet not sorting on going broadband problem

having on going issues with our broadband, plusnet really slow in sorting, our speeds range from slow to non existant, we've had to report several times but they really don't seem interested, thought I might tweet it, apparently they listen then?? I cant speak to them on live chat as not enough speed to open it...and they really don't like answering the phone...?Huh

Re: plusnet not sorting on going broadband problem

I had the same problem for a couple of weeks up until tonight. Internet speeds next to nothing on both PC and Laptop (both wireless). TV was working fine however. Eventually after trying a few things I reset my network settings and everything seems to be running as it should.

 

Click the wireless symbol bottom right in the active programs tray

Click on Network Settings

Click on Status tab on the left menu

Then you should see the option to Network Reset.

 

Hope this helps!

Reply to Matthew plusnet Hi,they're not actually,that's the point,we have very intermittent broadband,internet tv does not work at all.days of silence after posting a question,I still haven't heard from then since last posting,it's very frustrating,I'm sure if I stopped my payments I'd soon hear from them.......it really isn't fair,we live out in the country so no chance of getting to a hotspot without travelling miles.

Re: plusnet not sorting on going broadband problem

Thanks for that,have tried but no better,we were told by plusnet two years ago that we probably need the line to the house replacing but they won't do anything about it,it used to go down when it rained but now it's all the time,they're just not interested....

Re: plusnet not sorting on going broadband problem

I made a legitimate and serious contribution to this thread.  Unfortunately forum moderators are often tin-pot Napoleons.  They especially love to serve the interests of the company whose name is on the forum rather than the paying customers who have legitimate complaints against said company.  I think the name for this is 'brown-nosing'.  Moderators are also notorious for taking sides unfairly e.g. supporting trolling if it comes from a long-time member of the community against a new member.  This is no less than internet bullying, a practice common to both moderators and trolls alike.

 

[There's another comment for you to remove, Mav.  I hope its message isn't lost on you.]

I am very sorry that your ticket hasn't been picked up yet @pd1 It looks like the ticket didn't come off hold correctly when you replied to it and it was basically stuck in a pending state Sad

 

I've sorted that for you now and I've passed the ticket to one of my colleagues to take a look at.

@cyclops680

Was that speed test completed over a wireless or wired connection?
