I’ve “upgraded” 200Mbps to 350Mbps and now I’m getting speeds as low as 100mbps.

My eeros wifi mesh (thats wired in) runs speed tests for me nightly and these are fairly typical speeds. Sometime it does go up to 250, but I’ve never seen it more than that.

I’ve tried plugging a laptop (and unplugging everything else) directly into the virgin router and I’m setting the same speeds, so it can’t be any devices on my network.

I’ve tried contacting virgin online, but their hold time is supposed to be an hour at the moment. Can anyone here help me?

What speed do you get on https://speedtest.samknows.com/ with direct wired connection from PC/Laptop to router using a Cat 5e cable or better with a 1Gbps capable Ethernet network card?

1. Make sure the cable is Cat 5e or better
2. Make sure your PC/laptop has a 1Gbps or better network card
3. Make sure Hub is in router mode
4. Disconnect all other Ethernet cables when running the test
