      Nope but VM sure make it look dirty.

      guess your right just another case of VM speed test making their connection look bad and needing modem mode to fix it.. 

  • Unused connection all day, however it only shows on real speed samknows when doing the router side of the test, device doesn’t cause any packet loss on pingplotter

      This suggests that the overhead of running a fully saturated Gig2 test on the HUB 5x overwhelms the hardware.

        Its not the hardware or we would see high ping spikes this is the speed test traffic set for high Priority on the hub

    There have been other reports of the hourly tests o XGS-PON.  Could this be similar?

  • So the weirdest thing last night between 12-1am the internet went down, the hub said the connection was okay, however it was down until I restarted it this morning then it came back on. So weird…

  • Still no improvement unfortunately.... the last packet drop had me disconnect from a game, it's so annoying!

      Looks like the speed test guy nipped off for a cuppa at 9pm.

      I would raise a formal written complaint demanding that the speed tests cease immediately.

      Hi InspireJS 

      Welcome back to our forums and sorry to hear you have been having ongoing issues with packet lost. To best look into what is going on we are sending you a private message. Please keep an eye out for an envelope at the top right corner of your Forum page. Let me know if you have any issues locating this.

      Thanks,

  • Exactly the same boat. 2gig up and down.

    this monitor has been running since friday, issues have been present about a week prior to that and still persist. £90 a month for constant drop outs is not the service i intended on paying for!
