Do you use same wifi band or one on each? both 2.5Ghz and 5Ghz. The speed tests results at the moment are 38.3 mbps download, 0.08 mbps upload (2.5Ghz), 86.0 mbps download and 12.1 mbps upload.   When you have these dropouts, what happens to the Internet light on VR1600? all lights are up like usual   Can you check in router for Bandwidth Control. Is it enabled and is there a value for Upstream Bandwidth? Bandwidth control is enabled with the upstream value of 19800 kbps    When you are not connected to VPN, run the speed test on TPG support page. Does the graph on the upload test go smoothly or does it stop and start? What speeds do you get. interestingly on the TPG speedtest (http://tpg.speedtestcustom.com/) - graph uploads smoothly, 53 mbps download but 0 upload. If i use ookla speed test - 46.53 mbps download and 17.35 mbps upload.    Out of interest, could you both run speed test at same time without VPN. Just click GO at same time. How did it go? roughly the same. ... View more
