Slow speed on new 1gig

[Macin1818]

Hi. About a week ago I recently upgraded from 200 to the 1gig line using the hub 4 that was delivered. Since I’ve only managed to get up to 300mb down in speed tests. This is in either router or modem mode. I’ve tested on Wi-Fi using Wi-Fi 6 also Ethernet using cat7 cables 

If feels like there is some kind of throttling happening. Can any one from virgin support advise?

thanks

Hi

yesh sorry the Samknows site was interesting. It showed me getting 1gig to the router, then my side was 300mb ish. I assume this points to the router as my pc and mac I used have 10/100/1000 nic and I tried two brand new short cat7 cables

I’m a bit unsure where to go with this. Upload however seems ok. I seem to get 45-50 up which I assume is about right

Speed test sites can be inconsistent.

Try a few different ones:

www.fast.com

www.speedtest.net
