New Router slower speed.


[link to this post]
 
I have been given a new router to test as the wi-fi on mine was playing up its exactly the same router (TalkTalk Wi-Fi hub) but on installing my speed has dropped from 70 Mbps to 14 Mbps (see test result below)

TBB speed test Ethernet -

Wi-Fi is also around 13 Mbps using the TBB speed test.

The current speed on the old router was 70+ Mbps but it is now 29 (see link below)

This is what is showing now - https://postimg.cc/gXrHNYtP

Has anyone any idea what has gone wrong?

Standard VDSL2

More stats here - https://i.postimg.cc/kMjwTkwr/2222222.jpg

Its probably going to be something obvious but as you can tell i am well out of my depth here.

Looks like a completely faulty router - the upstream speed is almost zero (0.35M)

Or maybe just a broken pin or cable, so you're only connecting on one leg.

Why are the router stats showing 29 Mbps when the old one was 70+ Mbps i am on FTTC.


The current speed on the old router was 70+ Mbps but it is now 29 (see link below)
