Absolute rubbish service and internet.

Skidys0909 — Tue, 10 Sep 2024 15:58:23 GMT

For months we've had no issues. We are on fibre 65. Suddenly our Internet is rubbish its so slow and keeps dropping. It's affecting me working from home, we can't watch catch up tv or disney channel and I'm not getting any help. I'm having to reboot router at least twice a day which fixes it for a bit then back to square one. I spent over an hour on live chat only for her to stop communicating with me. I've been ignored when I said I wanted to complain. Is there anyone out there with some clout that can get this sorted and looked into. My work is suffering as is my stress levels. Your customer service repsa are abysmal. We have a Huawei router not more than 3 feet from where I work or the TV. I don't know how to fix this any help would be greatly appreciated

Hello,

I'm sorry to hear this. I've run a test on the line now which is clear and the sync speed looks consistent. What speeds are you currently seeing if you run a speed test please? Could you also try powering down the router for a full 30 minutes and then retest again as this will reset the current session.

Thanks

Michelle

It's saying speed from router to device is poor speeds of 3.5 to 6.3 is not good. I know I'm only on fibre 35 but it shouldn’t be as rubbish as this. Do I need a new router or is there anything you can do. I've lowered down router for 20 mins which seems to fix it bit then it's just as bad a few hours later. I'm sick of rebooting router ad am having to turn it off st least twice a day

Hi @Skidys0909

Would you like me to send a replacement router for testing?
