Slow Broadband Speed

sharfah — Tue, 14 Mar 2023 21:21:08 GMT

Hello,

My broadband download speed has dropped from about 12 Mb/s to 5 Mb/s over the last two weeks.

Can you please reset the data port and optimise the line like you did the last time I had this issue?

I've performed the usual checks on my end - rebooted router, connected to master socket, no noisy phone line etc.

Thanks

Hi @sharfah

I have asked one of TalkTalk's support to pick your thread up and investigate it for you.

They aim to respond within 48 hours (Monday - Friday) excluding Bank Holidays, but if more urgent you can always try the Service Centre on 0345 172 0088. The posts are responded to in time/date order, oldest first. Please try to avoid posting on here until TalkTalk has responded to you, otherwise, this will just put you further down the queue.

Hi sharfah

I'm really sorry to hear this.

I have reset the data port and optimised your connection and the line is now in sync at 15mb.

Please let us know how the connection/speed is over the next few days.

Thanks

Debbie

Hi Debbie,

Thanks, speed seems to be good now. But it disconnects and reconnects quite frequently though.

Morning,

Thanks for the update and I'm sorry to hear this. Does your main socket have a test socket please?

Thanks

Yep, I tried connecting to the test socket and also tried another router, but still got a lot of disconnects yesterday. Today has been better. I'll continue to monitor it.
