I signed up and had sky fibre 500 installed christmas eve. It was working well, but checked the speeds today. Download is 500, but upload is only 2.66mbs. I was told it would be 60mbs. Any ideas

@Bazzer1947 The norm is around the 500/70 on the sky FF500 connection, you will have to get sky involved, but do a few test's at various times on your Fibre connection, bandwidth is shared and just incase someone on your connection is hammering a huge upload, if not the OR have to get involved with what is going on with your Fibre circuit!
