Wifi

I am on super fast speed for my WiFi and you are lucky if I'm get 20 download and 4 upload. I am seriously not happy. My tv barely works on this if my son has his Xbox on. Or is trying to download

@Kimbo_ speed on partial fibre connections is limited by the length of the copper phone line from the cabinet to your home. Homes less than say 200m from the cabinet will get the maximum 80Mb/s but if the line is say 1500m long 20Mb/s is perfectly possibly the maximum any ISP can provide. Could that be the explanation?

Openreach are installing full fibre in many areas which does not have a similar restriction you can find out what is planned for your addresss see https://www.openreach.com/fibre-checker

What is  your  broadband speed?  and remember  that that is the speed  to the hub not to the devices that are connected  to the  Internet, the more devices that  are connected  to the wifi  the weaker the signal to each device is and also wifi is not the most stable connection many other things  can weaken the the like if you  live in an old  house  with solid  brick walls, you will  probably  need a wifi booster  to help with  the signal around  the house
