Good spot mate. I didn't know that, I've always just set up WG manually.

As usual, Avalon is spot on. You'd be better off running WireGuard on a local Raspberry Pi, your NAS or similar and connecting through that. When I was on VM I got 100Mbps consistently over WireGuard when connected remotely (i.e. the upstream was saturated no problem).

Speak to your landlord. Tell them the walls block WiFi and as your disability can prevent you freely moving up/downstairs you hope they have no objection to a professional cable run. It wouldn't cost much at all (CheckATrade or similar) and would be essentially invisible. Solid core copper...

Sorry, I wrote this ages ago but I forgot to post it (kids!). It depends on which ISP you choose. Some don't provide a router at all, but they're generally poor. If you care about latency and bufferbloat then personally I'd go x86 or at least get a decent router and only shape the upstream...

Don't worry about the Cloudflare one, those two are already pretty informative. It's as I said, you're seeing bufferbloat and your 75 and 95 percentile results are very high. The jitter and high latency is more than enough to impact your daily experience, but it's also a fairly easy fix - just...

If you're on anything much above dial-up and a simple YT stream is impacting gaming on a different device, then you seriously need to look either a terribly faulty WAN or at upgrading your router. Bandwidth fair queueing is certainly applicable on a low speed connection, or where one client may...

There are a fair few ND folks on here, so don't stress. Your BQM is decent overall, as Avalon said. You're showing utilisation spikes and some possible congestion, however. The chipset in the Hub 3 won't be helping, but by its nature VM's HFC/DOCSIS network is prone to latency and jitter. Your...

Pray, elaborate...

What does fair queuing have to do with it? Unless the OP has a machine filling the up and downstream with torrents 24/7, bandwidth allocation has little to nothing to do with the latency issues. Adding VLANs is immaterial.

Absolutely stick with Ethernet where at all possible - including when that means busting out the drill. Probably. The 3 is old now, but perfectly serviceable for your speed tier. I'm not 100% (@Avalon @ChrisD. ?) but I think VM are still reserving the Hub 5 for the gigabit tiers. The Hub 3 is...

Yup, both issues were down to Openreach/BTw's side. They were communicated very well, updated constantly, and remedied within a few hours. It's unfortunate timing, but judging by the history of faults it's unusual. I'm certainly still happy.

Hell in a handcart for me, today: Ticket submitted, of course. Hopefully it's sorted soon, I'm struggling to even load web pages.

As far as I know, and I'm speaking more generally here not about Aquiss, they're being rolled out Q4.

I'm assuming you saved more than £5.99 overall, on the third item? They're probably just being sent from different stores/warehouses, I'd imagine. Whether delivery is 'free' or not, you're paying one way or the other. TBH £6 for three items and three deliveries doesn't sound awful, and you've...

Yup. If only it did/they could! My wife's uncle passed away last year, after a severe frontal ischaemic stroke during dialysis. The doctors basically said he wouldn't have much time left even without the stroke, and although recovery from the stroke *was* possible to a degree, it'd take 2 years...

Yup. :)

Really sorry to hear that. :( It's always incredibly difficult, and like losing a family member. I had to PTS my terrier at a couple of months short of 18 years old, just over a year ago so I know how you feel mate. I'm sure your collie (Border?) had a great life, you'll soon be left with just...

Difference is, with OR FTTP you drop a ticket or make a call and it's sorted within the day. With VM (whom gave me far more problems, incidentally) you get nothing but 'We're aware of an issue in your area and our engineers are on the way. We hope to have this resolved within a week/month/6...

From what he said earlier, I took that it did. However, he disabled WiFi around 10pm and resumed it before morning, so it doesn't rule out any fault or utilisation issue. Dropping Aquiss a note early on for input won't do any harm. The spike in average latency rather than just peak latency does...
