Has anyone else's connection suddenly dropped to a quarter UL speed? I'm starting to have to bounce the modem more and more, too.
We've had a solid 380/38-ish connection for months. Now it's no more than about 10Mbps up. I'd get hold of Virgin and have them come out but that's always such a farce.
Yep, all those things were in place.
Anyway, I've managed to get full Ethernet speeds over the Netgear now after factory resetting both it and the SH3 so I've now got proper WiFi speeds and full Vivid350 speeds over Ethernet, too. All good.
On the SH3? All sorts. MacBook Pro, Lenovo laptop, Dell desktop, a couple of iPhones, couple of Android tablets. The WiFi's just.....rubbish. The MacBook Pro's basically used like a desktop so doesn't move. File transfers off my NAS are chalk and cheese when switching between the two routers...
OK, so I *think* I've sussed why I wasn't getting full speed out of Vivid 350. I've turned modem mode off and using the SH3 over Ethernet I'm getting pretty much full speed and certainly more than in modem mode. So that has me particularly confused. I refuse to believe my Netgear D7000 can't...
Morning all.
So, thoughts on the following please.
We moved house yesterday and was on VM 200Mbps at the old place. The new one supported 350Mbps so we obviously upgraded because I wanted the extra UL and let’s be honest, bigger numbers rule.
We’re connected the same way we were at the old...
Bit of a strange one, but bear with me.
I have an existing Vodafone contract that's around 4 months old. I have a different number that I want to port across. My question is can I still do that all this time after taking the contract out, or is there some sort of time limit on when I can ask...
So, VM installation all done on Vivid 200. Not got a screenshot handy but I'm pulling ~220Mbps down and 13Mbps up. To be honest I wasn't aware that the upload was only going to be 13Mbps - I was apparently getting Vivid 200 and Vivid 200 Gamer mixed up. I don't see Gamer on the website anymore...
We've just had VM move into the area. Currently on 60Mbps FTTC which is hugely oversubscribed. My VM install on Friday will likely be one of the first in the area, so we'll just have to see what the uptake is.
Mine's getting installed on Friday so we'll see. I have a strange DHCP/DNS setup in our house so I'm going to cause chaos. Might just let them install it how they want and then mess about afterwards.
Bloke knocked on the door earlier - seems they're doing door-to-door for anyone who registered interest while they were doing the work in the street a few weeks ago. Install date is Friday 13th - 200Mbps, Fibre only. I might tell them to put the TV in yet, trying to decide how important Sky...
Virgin went live for my address today, so obviously I immediately looked at Vivid350. Price seems fine to me, and while I obviously don't *need* that speed, if I got anything less I'd always feel like I was missing out!
However, I'm being told by some with Vivid350 that there are issues...
Mine's got something causing it to randomly restart of its own accord that I think is going to need a full restore to fix, so we'll see how that goes. Actual performance isn't bad - things that were slow before still are, but nothing's getting slower.
You seem to be getting a bit miffed mate, don't worry, Samsung (nor any company) don't need you to stick up for them.
I bought the phone (and the S7E for that matter) because it was the best Android phone around at the time for a few reasons. The Pixel came out after the S7E, and the Pixel 2...
I think this just goes to show how subjective these things are and why we need third-parties making Android devices, like Samsung and co. What you call Samsung features, I call Samsung cruft. To each their own, as ever. The beauty is there's something for everyone.
