I have arranged to have my service upgraded to the Gigafast service and am awaiting an engineer coming out to do this (planned for next week). However, ever since a few days after I selected to upgrade my service, the internet speeds I am getting are VERY slow (currently at 9.2Mb/s, whilst on 15th November I was getting 34.8Mb/s, which is approximately what I was getting for all the time before that). These speeds are from the Sky Service Checker, which displays that my speed went from 34.8Mb/s on 15th Nov to 14.3Mb/s on 16th Nov and has stayed between 9-13Mb/s since then.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>I have no idea what is causing this, could it be to do with the installation of my upgraded service? I can only go so far on the Service Checker because it eventually just says that I already have an engineer booked, referring to the engineer that is planned to install Gigafast.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>If I have to wait until the faster internet is installed then so be it, but if I can go back to relatively usable speeds then I'd prefer it!</P> Thu, 28 Nov 2024 22:16:31 GMT https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Broadband/Very-Slow-Wifi-While-Waiting-for-Upgrade/m-p/4836034#M444203 mackem93 2024-11-28T22:16:31Z https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Broadband/Very-Slow-Wifi-While-Waiting-for-Upgrade/m-p/4836113#M444223 <P><a href="https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1366584">@mackem93</a>&nbsp;your current issue cannot be related to the future installation of a full fibre line as your current service is over your copper phone line which becomes redundant next week.
