Ethernet speed VERY slow

@phenomlab said in Ethernet speed VERY slow:
is the device in question connected directly to the hub or is there anything in between such as power line adapters etc?
Not at all pal, pure WiFi connection.
We have some WiFi adapters (pods) from virgin media, if unplugged naturally speed gets worse.
@JAC can you plug a laptop with a wired connection into the back of the router and run a speed test from there?
Let’s cut out the Wi-Fi for the moment and handle each issue individually. If your still get poor speeds from the Virgin hub then this is the first place to troubleshoot.
The ports there should be set to auto speed and duplex but this night not be the case. If they are (for example) set to 100Mbps then you won’t see much over that.

I thought it may be an issue with the router but there is over 1gbps feeding into the box as confirmed running speed tests & speaking to Virgin, unsure how reliable it is but Virgin told me to use this - https://samknows.com/realspeed/

@phenomlab Will do pal.

@JAC yes, Sam Knows is a well respected site.
