Broadband speed
I may be being thick here but i have fibre which i thought was direct to the house so why do my speeds change as if this is direct to my house what the neighbours have surely shouldn't affect it? My speeds reduce dramatically during the day.

Re: Broadband speed
@Loobs72 If you are measuring speeds on a device connected by WiFi to your hub you often are just measuring the speed of the wifi in your home not the fibre broadband feed to your hub. WiFi speeds vary due to the layout of your home and how it is built. The wifi in your home can also be affected by interference from your neighbours' wifi networks if they are using the same or adajacent channel which would cause spedds to vary..
However with full fibre each home is connected to a distribution point thst has 32 connections which will be used to connect the other homes near you. That distribution point uses a single 2.48Gb/s fibre to the exchange however in practice it is very rare for that limited capacity to cause an individual connection to slow down. This is because very few connections ever use more than a small % of the capacity they buy.
