Hi all,

Just as the title says, is anyone else having problems today? Bolton, Greater Manchester here.

If I have posted in error in the wrong section, my apologies in advance.

Thanks.

Hi,

On I do believe fibre 65, but only get about 45mbps.

Cheers.

45mbps is quite normal for FTTC Fibre65, @Alecmills.

Not a lot can be done to check the router / connection before staff support returns on Monday.

@Alecmills

Depending how far you are from your fibre cabinet & what your guaranteed download speed is, this could be as fast as 79Mbps.

What make/model of router do you have?

Hi @Alecmills

I don't really understand how you can have a flashing orange light and yet get a 45Mbps download. Unless this is an older router than I suspect you have, with that light flashing, you should have a nonexistent download speed. Please can you clarify?

@Alecmills Please respond to @KeithFrench so that we can look into performing a diagnostics test.

Thanks one and all, I will try to get through on the phone, as I have had an injury and difficult to type on here.

Cheers on,

Al.

Exactly the same issue here.

"I don't really understand how you can have a flashing orange light and yet get a 45Mbps download. ", do you think he means historically?

This is the fourth router that's giving me the same problem (Sagemcom Fast 5364), last one was replaced yesterday, and the flashing orange light is there!

"is anyone else having problems today"

I have! Is it against the rules to comment on another post when invited to?

Re: Fibre 65 no internet, router flashing orange

Philile-TT — Tue, 26 Aug 2025 09:48:27 GMT

@UITA23! No, it is not a problem to comment hence I had mentioned if you are still having an issue so that we can look into resolving it.
