Re: Question #158178979

The engineer that came out to me today was an absolute plonk! I don't usually get annoyed with people easily but this guy was bang out of order.

 

He tested my line and told me I am sync'ing at 74Mbs.  I told him if I disconnect my modem and reconnect, I could achieve the same thing.  And so did his colleague before him.  The issue is that the speed gradually goes down to 2Mb over the course of a day.

 

He then went almost apocalyptic when I tried to run a second speed test while he was here.  I suggested that a speed test is merely a file download, similar to what I would do on any web page, but apparently he has been on broadband courses so he knows better.  After that, it got very awkward to even speak to him.

 

I'll monitor my speed over the course of the day and see what happens.

@MatthewWheeler I'll put it this way, I regret making the man a coffee. THAT's how livid I am.
