I’m on the Cable 50 plan. I’m having trouble with download speed and buffering. I ran a speed test: see below. It says 0.5mbps!! Why is it so slow when I’m paying more money for faster speed???

Hi @gorejonv ,

 

Welcome to the community!

 

Thanks for raising this to us.

 

There are different types of speed issues that you may experience:

 

1. Speed issues caused by a line fault on TPG or NBN's network. Affecting all device(s) LAN/Wireless connected to the modem/router this may require a real-time test and investigation by our Technicians and Engineers.

 

2. Wireless Speed issue this issue only affects the device(s) connected via Wi-Fi which can easily be fix by doing adjustment to the modem/router's settings.

 

3. Speed issues caused by ongoing outage in your area. 

 

In the event that the affected devices are connected Wireless/Wi-Fi connection, we recommend having a read on the following articles:
