Just checked my speed,3.5mps. When i first had trouble with my broadband i was asked to upgrade my router,after a while had same problem.So then upgraded to fibre as suggested by bt. Now i find out that the problem is with the copper wire from junction box to the house,as fibre only goes to junction box.
I may not be well informed about the technicalities of broadband but i should imagine that the fibre was already in junction box and all they have done is connect my copper wire.
So they have charged me twice to upgrade,but i am still using the faulty copper wire.
Bit of a rant i know,but to add, we have just had what the yanks call an outage with our electricity for 2 hrs and i missed bargain hunt.
