Hi Basildv

I tested on wired, got a small increase 50mb to 77mb for a week or so then back to normal 50mb

A bit late to respond...anyways....

My speed boost is working...

I am on NBN50, with  the boost, I am now getting an ave. 200 Mbps on my PC via hardwire ethernet,

and around 180 Mbps on Wi-Fi.

I rebooted my nbn box and modem/router after I received the notice.

We are glad to know that, @leo_b. Let us know should you require any assistance. Cheers!

Hi @Sirius,

I am glad to know that changing the channels of Wireless Connection improved the Wi-Fi connection of the service.

Let us know should you require further assistance.

I also received the following email last month stating the following:

Please enjoy a complimentary 6 month internet speed boost from TPG!

From 10/02/2021 to 10/08/2021, you’ll be enjoying the new nbn™ Home Superfast plan with up to 4 times the estimated Typical Evening Speeds compared to your current plan^.

So far havent experienced any increase in speed after multiple tests.

Can I please get some assistance?

Thanks for the reply. Speed hasn't changed. I have attached the screenshot for wifi speed. It varies between 35 and 48 and occasionally going to 52. My new modem is TP LINK Archer AC1600 Dual Band. With wired connection the speed is 41.25 download and upload 20.83
