New Fibre installation but reduced sync speed.
Hello,
So i just got Fibre activated on my line which is estimated for 80mb but i'm only syncing at 55mb. Now i'm not expecting 80mb but 55mb seems a bit lower than normal surely?
Just wanna know if there's an issue or if i'm overthinking it. To be fair the connection has been very stable and consistent at 50-55mb/s
I feel like the fact that i have a non-NTE5/MK3 Master Socket might be the culprit. But i'm a newbie so don't know.
What do you guys think?
Did you plug the router into the phone test socket to see it that makes a difference? Assuming the master phone socket has one hidden under the lower cover.
Your BTW IP Profile and speed test is showing that you are under the acceptable speed (hence it is shown in red) so you might want to raise a fault at https://portal.plus.net/apps/kbdfaults after trying the test socket approach.
Please make sure that if you do unplug the router that you first log onto the router and click "disconnect" and wait a minute or two before you unplug it from the wall socket or turn its power off. Just so that the cabinet knows that you are disconnecting it and it is not a fault 
Might get Openreach to sort out the socket for free too if you're lucky
Openreach have replaced mine twice now and the original was only installed in 1991.
Amazing how many of the old style sockets are still around and will stay as self installs are the norm now.
