Post Your Broadband Speed.

Fast gives me.

One thing I've done with most of my fixed devices is connect them via Ethernet, as they're all in one corner along with the router. Two desktops, the Freesat box, and the tv itself

not quite as good at home

I agree, to an extent, re your 'caught up' comment.

But, the ultra-fast speeds may not be strictly necessary right now but they are a form of future proofing.

Technology and online services are changing so quickly plus who could have predicted the WFH surge? All putting more demands on home broadband capability.

BB speeds are now quoted on house sale details too.

I think you mentioned about "future proofing" earlier in the thread, which got me thinking, so when my renewal came up I investigated having full fibre and when I found out it was cheaper it was a no brainer. Win, win. Thanks for that!

After having weeks with very little (or no) broadband, we finally got a visit from an Openreach guy. He was very helpful, thorough and honest..... at the end of about 5 hours trying to fix it. he checked all our wiring, and then disappeared down a hole in the village, then the green box the other side of the village. He returned and said "I can't find the fault", but i will. And he did whilst we were away the last few days. We came home, plugged in a new router he'd authorised for us, did a few key pushes and it now works. The guy was surprisingly good (I reckon he'll be sacked for being too good!)

This is the basic package. Been on fibre optic for a few years now. Not bad for a so-called developing country.

 

[Proto]

93.4 Mbps download
23.2 Mbps upload
EE 4G with roof mounted antenna

 

[Drago]

Now on fibre here at New Drago Towers, 148mbs.

Ok but the bullet and went to Virgin for WiFi Seems fast enough so far fingers crossed Quick question though in the back bedroom upstairs,furthest away from router not as good,can I buy a extender to plug in ? Saw some for 10/15 quid is it as simple as just plugging it in.
Wouldn't normally bother but it's my teenage daughters bedroom and interfering with her WiFi could be a fate worse than death !

We use one of these from TPI.

Simple to set up and very effective.

+/- 66 down and 15 up. Just enough.

255Mbps up and 25 down. I think it's ridiculously over specced.
