Slow internet

[pmsmith69]

around 3 weeks i noticed my hfc nbn 25 intrernet was down. my wife said she noticed telstra in the pit up the rd.

location templestowe lower.

coincidently our hfc nbn dropped out that day.

i reported this to tpg.

two days later it was back on.

tpg service bloke came anyway and said it was working....

it is working but its dreadfully slow now. Im paying for 25mb and get an average if 2-3mb down at best 5mb down. until telstra visited the pit speedtest was saying 24mb down all day. now I'm getting about 1/3 of what i used to get from adsl.

up runs around 3-4mb.

ping is around 90ms

see speedtest result

i signed on last aug for 18 months. so im six months in.

looks like I have been dumped to a highly contended link with inadequate backhaul.

i dont want to deal with service because if a carrier doesn't want to provide anything like what ive been promised i should be able to exit.

I feel cheated becasue I've been with TPG for several years.

How can I exit and try a different carrier ???

Here are my speedtest results. If my connection looks good the you might want to start studying braille and invest in a dog. Something like a labrador with a handle.
