slow internet

A new customer of TPG's and experiencing very slow internet speeds since connecting a few weeks ago.

I ran the TPG internet test and keep getting download speeds from the mid-1990's dial-up era. 0.7 Mbps download is the common result, and it has stopped altogether on several occasions. Are there any current network issues that would be causing this?

Hi @schwaa145 ,

 

Thanks for sending us your details. We ran an intiail test to the service it shows connected for 23h 29m with a passing speed on the line. We'd like to confirm what particular device(s) is affected with slow connection.

 

For testing purposes, please run a speed test (www.speedtest.net) using desktop/laptop connected via LAN/Ethernet cable and post a screen shot on this thread.

 

Cheers!
