What device are you measuring that on and are you using wifi or ethernet

KarSam1 — Sun, 07 Apr 2024 20:22:49 GMT

All available broadband speed checkers on the internet. WiFi using newly installed gigafast router

The only accurate way of measuring fttp speeds is via an ethernet connection using fast.com with nothing else connected

KarSam1 — Sun, 07 Apr 2024 20:30:09 GMT

How do I do that?

You mean you don't have a device with ethernet?

KarSam1 — Sun, 07 Apr 2024 20:32:06 GMT

Fair enough but nothing is ever connected via Ethernet and only Wifi

KarSam1 — Sun, 07 Apr 2024 20:33:25 GMT

I'm not a techy, what can I connect via Ethernet that I can test speed using fast.com?

See if you can get a wifi max hub , I have one with gigafast broadband and the lowest speed I get to the hub is 750mps

Presumably with WiFi 6 client devices though: 802.11ac is very unlikely to be that fast.

I have full fibre to the property which is gigafast broadband 900mps

peter-marlow+1966 — Mon, 08 Apr 2024 05:22:48 GMT
