My first day on Plusnet 900

So I have been testing at peak times (8-10pm) and during the day. I am getting 1 gbit down and 110 mbit up on fast.com and 930 mbit down and 107 mbit up on Ookla speedtest pretty consistently. So am well please at my move from AA.

Well done @banger696 , I've been following your progress on the ThinkBroadband Forum.

Which router are you using now ? is it still the Asus RT-AC68U ?.

I am using the Hub 2 as a router and 3 x RT-AC68U in mesh as access points. Seems to work well.

I find Fast.com "flatters" the connection. Ookla's Speedtest is much more plausible. 

I am the satisfied customer....

Looks about right, apart from the last test showing 1.2Gbps as the provisioned speed for the full fibre 900 package is 1Gbps download and 115mbps upload.
