Slow Upload

My Fibre switch over was actually done today.

Naturally the first thing I have done is a speed test (using wired connection).

BTWholeSale Speedtest shows
D/L 59.48 Mbps
U/L 0.77 Mbps

IP Profile
D/L 77.42 Mbps
U/L 20 Mbps

What might be causing my slow upload?

Both the upload and download are very poor for your connection speeds, which are in effect the full 80/20.

If you are testing using a wireless connection, try wired. If you are using Homeplugs through the mains, what specification?

Edit - Oops, I missed that you said wired. Make sure of that by turning off the wireless on your computer or better still on the router. If you connect physically wired when already on wireless not all systems switch over. At least, not immediately, within the timescale of more than one speed test.

The hard wired connection should always be the lower metric in the routing table. (netstat -r)

Hi,
I have my laptop connected directly to the router via ethernet cable, wireless on laptop is turned off.

Been looking at some of the settings and I think I must still be on an adsl connection

I have just done an Auto Setup and the router set the Transfer Mode to PTM and DSL Mode to VDSL2
With these settings I can't get a connection.

However if I set the Transfer mode to ATM and DSL mode to Auto I get the 60/1 connection.

Maybe I am simply looking too early as my switch over day is today, between 08:00 and 13:00

How would you be getting 59Mbps download on an ADSL connection?

Being left on the ADSL settings after upgrading to TFFC by Plusnet does sometimes happen, but it will only affect download speed not upload (and your download is way better than ADSL speed anyway).

My line length is 250m, maybe this shows what ADSL is really capable of given a very short line !!!
And an IP Profile allowing it to go as fast as it can !!!

No Idea! the netgear settings may suggest that...

I think you know that isn't true.

Something weird is definitely happening.

My IP Profile is good for 80/20
My Sync Speeds are good for 80/20

But I am only getting 60/1
And my NetGear router will not connect in VDSL mode.

Unfortunately due to a no show on Wed 07-Oct by BT engineer I do not have the OpenReach modem to try.
I have "free" plusnet router and the OR modem is in the post (supposedly)

Good job I only ever intended for the PN Router/OR Modem to be a backup and I have my NetGear D6400 otherwise I would still have nothing today.

We could do with knowing your 6400 WAN settings and the full stats just copy&pasted not just what you gave us above. Preferably without the "code" surround that makes them less easy to read.
