Fibre-Speed Slow

My router arrived a week ago or so and I was told my line will be activated by 06/04/2016. But I revived a text on the 5th saying it's been activated. I set up my router and since then I've only been recieving speed from 4-18mb but I'm paying for fibre extra speeds. Help?

Re: Fibre-Speed Slow

I'm just running a few tests for you.

Can you confirm that you've got the Hub One connected to the master socket like either of the below images?

router-ssfp-phone

router-microfilter-phone

Re: Fibre-Speed Slow

Are you checking the speeds via a wired connection or wireless?

Re: Fibre-Speed Slow

Wired with every device off and still not reaching the speeds I paid for. My line check shows that I can receive up to 80mb aswell but I'm no where near it

Re: Fibre-Speed Slow

Your sync speeds are a bit intermittent at the moment.

Can you test it in the next 15 minutes?

Re: Fibre-Speed Slow

Possible to test using the test socket behind the master socket?

Re: Fibre-Speed Slow

I've ran 4 tests and they're all inconsistent. Varies from 10, 18, 28 and 32. Different everytime but still not close to the fibre extra I'm paying for

Re: Fibre-Speed Slow

What speeds should you be getting? You state you pay for the extra package, what estimates did you get during sign up?

Re: Fibre-Speed Slow

I should be getting 74 my line checks say I can receive 80, I will be satisfied with anything near even 60/70 because I know you can't exactly get the whole total there are many factors which affect it
