Poor upload speed

Wi-Fi upload speed is 10. I need 60 for my Blink security camera to work not sure why it is so poor?

Re: Poor upload speed

Openreach use an asymmetric upload speed so 10mbps is the usual for the base broadband package so may be the max you can get without knowing your current package

60Mbs outbound isn't possible on most broadband over an Openreach circuit.

 

FTTC has a maximum upload speed of 20Mbs for a property very close to the fibre cabinet.

 

To get 100Mbs outbound on FTTP you'd need to be on a 'Gigabit' (900Mbs) product.

Really?  Blink appears to specify a minimum of 2Mbs, so that would be a whole lot of cameras...

@RCF26 Blink state they require a minimum of 2mbps upload to work, where abouts are you seeing that 60mbps is required?
