Re: Serious speed issues.

Absolutely @bill888 - you're unlikely to get much beyond ~300-400mbps over Wi-Fi in favourable conditions using a Hub Two. This depends equally on the capability of the wireless devices you have connected to it, e.g. a 2.4GHz only device is unlikely to get into the hundreds.

Re: Serious speed issues.

@nathannchan hasn't posted the speed test results that I received via PM a few hours ago.

 

Using ethernet:

speedtest.net - looks awfully slow?

fast..com

I don't recognise this speed tester

The bottom two images would suggest it is a 900 Mb FTTP service being supplied by Openreach/Plusnet.

 

I just tried speedtest.net on my BT 500mb with same Youfibre server.

Looks like the youfibre server can't deliver 500+ Mbps speeds during speed tests.

@nathannchan also reported their hub 2 cut out twice in 30 minute interval earlier this afternoon.  Orange light on front of hub appeared on both occasions.    Reason unknown.

Re: Serious speed issues.

Interesting observation about the YouFibre speedtest.net server. I see similar. Not quite as low as the results posted here, but still ~300mbps lower than running the test against a different server.
