Hi guys, I have recently began a package with BT to do my telly, phone and internet. Its the Mrs, she wanted BT Vision...
The issue is, it is damn slow, I don't really understand why it is the case, because according to fancy BT hub 3, I am connecting at 18.46 Mbps, and my upload is 1.14 Mbps. Yet when I do a speedtest.net it says I am connecting around 3/4Mbps at most.
I have done the BT speedtest too, which says I am doing around 8Mbps give or take, but I have never seen download speeds like that (which at the moment are around 200KB/s)
I can fully understand it if say they said up to 24 Mbps, but the line could only do say 8Mbps, but why is it syncing at high speed yet, the speed itself is rather low.
I was with Virgin ADSL before which connected and downloaded at 8Mbps. According to documentation on BTs side, these 10 days worth of line training and all that is the reason, but I never had that with my old ISP?
The router is connected to the master socket, I live in a newish block of flats, so my side can't really be the issue?
Sorry for my ramble on..
P.S. BT Vison on demand keeps stopping and starting too, which I would guess is connected to the lack of bandwidth my line is giving me?
