Hi all.
I have TalkTalk fibre along with their latest Sagecom FAST 5364, and things are fine when connected via Ethernet - a good, solid circa 30Mbps.
Via WiFi, however, things are weird. Pages can often be painfully slow to load to my Packard Bell L5800 all-in-one PC (which is running fine...), with the scrolling symbol going for a few seconds. What's really strange, tho', is how variable the speed results are - I have moved the PC to within a metre of the router and have just run a number of TalkTalk speed tests one after t'other. These returned:
25ms, 2.6Mbps down, 0.4Mbps up
20ms, 28Mbps down, 8Mbps up
24ms, 4.5Mbps down, 0.9Mbps up
21ms, 3 Mbps down, 1.1Mbps up
Plugged in Ethernet cable and 19ms, 30Mbps down, 8Mbps up
My phone returns similar variations in speed, so it looks as tho' it's not my PC
Just tried my PC again via WiFi and the down speed started at 1.1Mbps and climbed at a very steady pace up to 11.4 throughout the test. Tried again, and it gave 29.6Mbps.
What could be causing such variation?! How do I begin to sort it?! (I have also asked on the TT forum, but have found it to be as slow as my WiFi in the past...)
Many thanks.
