Broadband Speeds

What sort of speeds should i be getting with the below, as when i do a speed test im only getting around 37-39mb on download. the upload is ok and about where it should be.

  • Estimated Download Range: 47 - 67Mbps
  • Estimated Upload Range: 14 - 18Mbps
  • Minimum Guaranteed Speed: 41.9Mbps
  • Current Line Speed (Download): 49.8Mbps

 

I did have an issue back in July/Aug time where the profile some how changed on my line and i was only getting around 29mb but this got resolved.

Re: Broadband Speeds

Are you testing on a wired or wireless connection?

Re: Broadband Speeds

This is on a wired connection, even with a laptop plugged directly into the router on its own via an ethernet cable the speeds are still pretty much the same.

Re: Broadband Speeds

My download speed has dropped drastically too it should be 40Mbs with a guaranteed of 30Mbs but can only get 20Mbs at a push the upload is 8Mbs which is ok. It’s just such a poor service from plusnet and the fact they won’t even keep to their guaranteed speed is abysmal. I’ll be filing a complaint and getting a refund for them breaking the contract and not guaranteeing the speed.

Re: Broadband Speeds

I was going to try and raise a ticket about this, but cannot seem to find this now via their help section, you can only use there chat or give them a call. 

I did try and login into my account and can see my account but still says login on the top right so not sure what is going on there.
