Dreadfully Slow

Dreadfully slow internet last night and this still morning, strangely speeds are on the better side of normal but I did get latency of over 1000 on one speed test and it's no better this morning. 

Anyone else suffering?

 Hello,

 

Can you login to the router, click disconnect and wait 30seconds and then click connect. See if speeds improve after this Cool_smiley

Re: Dreadfully Slow

That appears to have done it. Thanks.

 

I have a new PC and have lost the link to what gateway I'm on, could someone post it please as I can't it anywhere on the site.

Here you go http://usertools.plus.net/@gateway/ Smiley

glad to see a gateway hop solved you issue, yeah the new network really needs a speed along although i can understand it's a big task to switch everyone over.

Re: Dreadfully Slow

Nope, we don't send notification as from a customer point of view it's (usually) a seamless change without any impact. There's a thread here talking about the new network: https://community.plus.net/t5/Plusnet-Feedback/Plusnet-New-Network/td-p/1300536

Re: Dreadfully Slow

I wonder what network I'm on then.... I don't really notice any slow downs and live on a big estate and connect at 79mb!

Can we even find out if we are on new network? I heard those with static IP's can't tell from traceroutes
