My broadband was upgraded from M350 to M500 recently due to my O2 mobile package and the VOLT upgrade. However, post the broadband upgrade my download speed has dropped drastically. I can now barely achieve 80Mbps down though my upload is at 52Mbps. My computer is wired to an ethernet switch which in turn is wired to draytek router which in turn is wired to the cable modem which is running in modem mode (I do not need the cable modem wifi capabilities). Any pointers? Checking the cable modem config I have the following:
Network access | Allowed |
Maximum Number of CPEs | 1 |
Baseline Privacy | Enabled |
DOCSIS Mode | Docsis30 |
Config file | cmreg-vmdg505-bbt053-b.cm |
SFID | 21766 |
Max Traffic Rate | 575000085 |
Max Traffic Burst | 42600 |
Min Traffic Rate | 0 |
SFID | 21765 |
Max Traffic Rate | 55000085 |
Max Traffic Burst | 42600 |
Min Traffic Rate | 0 |
Max Concatenated Burst | 42600 |
Scheduling Type | BestEffort |
Prior to the upgrade I was getting pretty close to the M350 speeds with no issues. If there is nothing I can do from my end I will call Virgin Media technical support...

Checked all my networking kit and it was all looking ok. In the end raised a technical support call and virgin magically fixed the speed issue at their end on the same day. Glad it was quick to fix.
