“Good” speed but buffers whilst streaming
Speedtest claims 600mbps yet whilst streaming it constantly buffers and takes a long time to load even comments on social media. Feels slower than our old broadband that had maximum 200mbps! Have reset the hub multiple times and ensured it's in the best spot but it doesn't seem to have an affect.
