    535 at the hub whilst 235 at the device!   So what is the solution?

      The solution is up to you, as VM are supplying the contracted speeds to your Hub.  Are you using a good Cat 6 cable to your device, or is it Wifi?  If it's Wifi VM only guarantee 30Mb. 

      What Hub are you using and what device is seeing the 235 download speed?

        Is the PC directly connected to the Hub, via a Cat 6 cable?  Have you tested the speed (if Windows) using Safe Mode with Networking?

      Hub is latest one.

      Which Hub as Hub's 3, 4, 5 and 5X can all supply the 350 Tier.

      Hub 3 and 4 are Wifi 5, and 5 and 5X are Wifi 6.
