Update (just in case anyone is experiencing similar issues and isn't looking to change ISP) Before the end of my monthly cycle, they suggested I try upgrading my plan to NBN100 (100 download, 20 upload) for no extra cost if I cancel before the end of my cycle. The upgrade actually fixed 99% of...

I really do appreciate you taking so much effort to explain the connections and how it works. It will definitely be useful in the future when things actually start wearing and tearing. Unfortunately, I do not believe it is a physical connection issue as it only happens during certain times of...

I have been in contact with my ISP still as I've escalated it into a complaint. More background information: I am with More Telecom. They use the Vocus Communications network. I have an NBN 50 plan, which is 50mbps download, 17mbps upload They only ask for speed tests and sometimes ping tests...

Thank you for your reply, but I guess I'm losing hope. My issues with discord is that I can CONNECT to calls of course, as you said, even 1mbps is probably enough. However, I'm getting 5000ping and people I'm talking to are cutting out, sometimes for 5-10 seconds at a time, multiple times in a...

Thank you for your responses. I thought I would provide an update and seeking further advice. The initial speed tests that my ISPs had told me to conduct, they had told me to use the default server. I conducted a couple of my own tests on the same website (speedtest.net - the Ookla one) by...
