Speed test only showing 44-51 Mbps

Some of my devices aren't working doing speed test and only showing between 44-51 Mbps. Tried switching off and unpluging cable out the back of the hub

@Gemmm speedtest results show the slowest part of the transfer from the sever to your device so if run on a device using WiFi often just tell you the WiFi speed in your home. The only reliable test of the speed to your hub is to use an Ethernet cable.

 

Slow WiFi is incredibly common but your 45Mb/s is well above the highest speed Sky guarantee even if you buy their Sky WiFi Max bundle https://www.sky.com/help/articles/sky-wifi-max which is 25Mb/s in every room. Work out what speeds you require where and consider how much you are willing to spend in practice around 100Mb/s is ample for most purposes outside major downloads.
