Broadband soooo slow

coughandcath
On our wavelength

For over a month my broadband has been running  slower that that 600mb I am paying for . I have tried the obvious , turning on and off etc , but it has never been as bad as it is today . I’m back to wfh and only getting a fraction of the speed I am paying for … there are no reported service issues and have now been hanging on the phone for over an hour for any support . I am coming to the end of my contract so must be worth looking at other options out there . Anyone got any sensible ideas to get virgin to listen

Hi again @coughandcath 

I'm no expert in the broadband side, however I can see that your downstream levels are too high.

Also the upstream levels should all be 64QAM so something is amiss and I believe you'll need a tech visit to check everything

One of the more learned members will look at the thread and offer advice, and this will also probably be picked up in a day or two by a member of the Forum Team

Dave is totally right - If there is no outage listed on 0800 561 0061 then you need a tech visit to sort out the levels!

The only problem is getting through to them now …. Gave up after an hour yesterday 

Another 90 mins onto VM and then disconnected their end … rubbish broadband and even worse customer service…
