Slow download speed

Hi,

I have recently updated a laptop and mobile phone and just thought I'd check my broadband connection status.

Please see below.

Why am I only seeing 28Mb/s to my hub ?

Thanks for your help.

@Ste+W  Have you tried to report this issue to Sky? As we can see that the broadband test is not showing anything that would let you book an engineer.

Re: Slow download speed

Hi,

Thanks for the response.

However I'm at a loss to understand why a 28Mb/s feed is deemed not enough to book an engineer, based upon paying for a guaranteed speed of 59Mb/s?

 

Maybe an issue with the cabinet to property feed and therefore Openreach?

 

Might it be resolved quicker if I contact them directly (as I have done previously) rather than going through Sky?

 

Regards,

S

@Ste+W  Openreach do not talk to the public. You have to do this through Sky.

 

When you call Sky and asked the nature of the call say " Technical ", you may be asked for a mobile number, give this, but DO NOT hang up, stay on the line to be put into the queue to speak to an advisor.

Hi,

Openreach do interact with the public for issues of network damage and/or safety issues.

 

Anyway, spoke to Sky and a very helpful guy (Richard) has undertaken to get this resolved as funnily enough, it is a network issue.

 

Regards,

@Ste+WBut in instances like this they do not and you will be directed to speak to your ISP in this regard.
