Not good so far
Just moved back and the speeds I'm getting are shocking. Guaranteed 600 mbps getting 260. Any starting ideas or obvious changes?

Re: Not good so far
@stevemof161 Is your multiroom still involved or doing any hotspot etc with it, no pods involved and wireless or wired existing to the Max hub! Can your testing device do 900Mb/s speeds?
Sky Max change settings link.

Re: Not good so far
@stevemof161 Ookla just now wireless wifi connected to my Asus AP, 5 year old laptop on the sky FF500 connection. Laptop syncs at 1733/1733Mb/s but the pipe is only 500Mb/s for me, internal pushes around the 1200Mb/s mark! Site shown is the one i always use, let me know what you are selecting and i will speed test to it for you!

Re: Not good so far
@stevemof161 Can you Ethernet connect to the sky Max hub and speed test with that method if you have a device that can connect!
Wireless wifi unless you turn everything off, or know that your devices are all good, or allow the fudge factor for them, mine is up to the 40Mb/s as Fudge depending on what the daughter is doing streaming wise and if a 4K HD movie etc, or worst case PS5 Game downloading!

Re: Not good so far
Well apparently my Hub that SKY sent me cannot cope with the package I have bought...so they want me to pay an extra £10 a month. So looks like they either send it free or I cancel!!

@stevemof161 The sky Max hub is good to the FF900 package so surprised, you must be having a distance issue speed test to far away from the hub! Looks like the addon for Pods with the extra £10 month. Guess you will be leaving sky!
