YouFibre

All back to normal here, thankfully. Well until our 5 month old Cocker Spaniel decided to chew one of the LAN trunk lines (upstairs downlink) in half last night. Luckily I had a spare. :p

Internet is back working! They've replaced the fibre cable going into the ONT. I was told engineer would phone when they were on their way but no phone call came and they just turned up so luckily had someone house sitting.

Glad you're sorted mate, at least with fibre it's usually a quick and easy fix (dirty optic, broken cable).

I think my 2 year old is the most pleased it's back as he can now have Baa Baa Black Sheep back on repeat...

Got a friend of mine up in Teesside, he's lost Internet, I see that you're in Durham, which is closeby? How is your Internet?

Yep not far away. Apart from the downtime I've experienced this week, it's pretty reliable and am happy with them as a provider. I get the speeds that I pay for. Their support could be better though.

What issues is your friend having? Mine was red light on the ONT due to external issue.

He' got no Internet, red light on Optical, no alarm light tho, lives in the Stockton area. Downdetector is saying YouFibres having a moment :cry:

Same issue I had fixed today then. A few of the neighbours are with YF are it was only my house with the issue. Needed them to come out to fix it which they did on the 2nd attempt.

My ONT doesn't have an alarm light on either. Power optical and 2.5gb all green.

Crazy given he said it was all fine up until an hour ago :rolleyes:

Is his still down? Mine went down randomly about 1am last Saturday.

Finally got my 2.5gb switch so I can make use of getting the 2gb package. Random Chinese one but 8 port with two SFP+ ports for £26 seemed a bargain.

Is there a specific setting on the router to enable those speeds? We had a power cut and my wifi 7 hub settings went to what i assume is default, getting nowhere near 2000 mbps now?
 
Should just be enabled by default, you'll just want to check that wifi 6Ghz and Wifi7 are enabled but I think that image is his wired speed and really that should be 2Gb both ways

On wireless I don't seem to get 2Gb both ways on my Intel Be320 cards, my phone has no problem high speed both ways on the router, so I probably need to see if there is a setting on the Intel as 2Gb down is fine but little over 1Gb up is a little poor.

Just reset the router after speaking to support , will monitor speeds and if it dont improve they will send a engineer. Where is the 6GHZ Setting?
 
Aye that's my wired speed. I get close to 2gb both ways one day but then seems to fluctuate the next.

If you have the Sagecom router then 6ghz band should be enabled by default. You can check by going to My settings > WiFi > private.
 
I only get variable speeds on my Wifi, down is always 2Gb but upload can be anything from 300Mb to 1500Mb and it doesn't seem to matter if its my PC wih Intel Wifi 7 or with Qualcomm chipset, the inital burst is high but not sustained.

My Phone has no such issues and can hit high speeds with regularity, my wired is always 2010/2050, so a little annoying my laptops won't do faster upload, not that I've ever needed more than my old VMs 100Mb but when you know its there you want to get it.

One day I'll setup up a speedtest server on my network to take out variables and start twiddling some knobs see if its some silly windows power saving or someting, but that's a project for next year.

I am on the 900 package and my wired speed test usually gives me 930 ish down but upload varies between 750 and 940. Not to bothered about the difference do long as the overall connection is solid.

My only gripe so far is the radio silence on my contract buyout since I passed all the checks two week ago. Supposed to be paid in 3-5 days. No response to email either.
