Extremely slow download speed, internet cutting out

[Ben670]

Hello.

I have had trouble with download speeds for the last week, barely getting 1mbs download.  I have tried rebooting the router and resetting it to factory settings but nothing has worked.  I have noticed when I reset the router it is taking at least 30 minutes for the internet to even connect. The phone line is also very crackly and I'm a bit lost as what to do next.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Same as me for about 8 days now.. I'm meant to be getting 40mbps but instead max is about 5mbps. Getting pretty annoyed now tbh as they still don't know what's wrong

@Ben670 I will run some tests and come back to you.  

@Ashton1  Can you start a new topic and we can begin to help.

@Ben670

Line tests have picked up a fault, So we can pass this out to Openreach. 

We can check the ticket for an update on Tuesday.

I look forward to the update on Tuesday.

The internet speed has gone back to normal today, I'm assuming that openreach managed to repair the fault? Anyway I'm grateful for your help @OCE_Karl @OCE_Arne - thank you very much.

Hi Ben670

I'm glad to hear that the speed has increased. Openreach have closed the fault advising that this was a local network fault that has been resolved.

Thanks

Debbie
