Upgrade to full Fibre 500 - Teething Problems?
Hello, yesterday had a full fibre 500 upgrade installed... previously we had a rock solid broadband connection, albeit limited in speed to around 25-30MB, so decided to take the plunge.
First 24hrs have been massively hit and miss... connection has dropped completely a couple of times (requiring router reset) and speeds at end points in the home seem wildly variable when i run basic speedtests. My work Teams calls have been impacted multiple times and my son who is an avid gamer is fuming at the 'glitchiness' he is experiencing which is a step backwards from what we previously had with our 30MB broadband.
Is it normal to have this instability with a fibre install? I would have thought it would be rock solid from day 1 given the technology involved and not subject to tuning etc?
Thanks

Hi
we have also upgraded to sky fibre, and have had nothing but problems since!
Given it is suppose to be better this is frustrating on the daily.
