Re: half speed

I also wonder if there is a problem with the BT speed test.

It shows varying results for my speeds, both up and down. In contrast both Ookla Speedtest and Thinkbroadband checkers show consistently good results when BT's are poor and advising a fault.

Re: half speed

Hi @goatty2 sorry to hear you are having issues. 

 

Testing isn't detecting the cause of the speed issues. Could raise the fault here and let us know when you have completed it.

If this post resolved your issue please click the 'This fixed my problem' button

Re: half speed

I think it is BT testing that is the problem as other people's speed test have same problem

speed test on other sites show twice the speed as BT

Re: half speed

think I have sorted the problem with BT speed test

I have tested it on 4 different browsers and firefox 58.0b14 (64-bit) is the only one to do half speed
