@alanbroadband   Please can you post your router stats so the forum can advise on any issues. This link explains how to do that https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Broadband/How-to-find-your-Sky-Broadband-router-stats/td-p/2855717#

@alanbroadband 

 

The router stats show you are likely testing throughput speed over a wireless connection, and you have lost 2 frequency bands (US1 & US2) with high attenuation on the upstream which looks like a fault either on the router itself or DSLAM. The upstream synchronisation rate should be 20Mbps but it is 455Kbps, the downstream synchronisation rate is good.

@alanbroadband As @mae-3 says there is an issue with your upstream speeds which Sky does not guarantee but given the extremly low soeed I think it is worth talking to Sky to see if they can get it checked out. Your download is fine so any issues are within your home see

I have therefore escalated your post so expectvSky to be in touch to offer an online chat through the forum where a chat button should appear - it can be flaky with some browser but Chrome normally works.
