I am new to AV forums and this is my first post.
Right where do i start,
I am on BT broadband option 3 "Unlimited" and have been for the past 2 years without many problems, but a couple of weeks ago my speed just suddenly dropped overnight and its driving me round the bend trying to figure out why?
Before the speed dropped i was getting, on average, 5000-5500kbps, 6500kbps at my highest peak. Then suddenly, overnight, it has dropped to less than 500kbps (down) and 250kbps (up), which is really annoying as im a PS3 online gamer.
After checking all internal wiring, hub manager settings, firewall settings etc, i thought it might have been a problem with my HomeHub as i have had it for about 2 years. So i ordered the new HomeHub v2.0 ( the black one ), set it up, all working fine, no connection dropouts BUT the Speed still isn't there.
I have run numerous speed tests and they all come up with the same thing........around 500kbps.
My Main PC i connected through ethernet so shouldn't have many problems there, i just cant think of what might be wrong, unless its something wrong at the exchange, which is less than half a mile away.
Anyway i thought i would ask for help on here and get some intelligent answers first, before i ring the indian call center...
Thanks in advance.
