You will always be paying for an UPTO service with a minimum guaranteed speed.

If it is not affecting your day to day use of the internet then don't worry.

Possibly relevant are a few peaks in latency that were observed on multiple Openreach circuits on the evening of Monday 19 September. These were observed at exactly matching times on ADSL, FTTC and FTTP connections at multiple sites in Oxfordshire. Connections with backhaul from TT were unaffected. As others have said, only speeds as far as the OLT are specified in the product description.

To be more precise, between 18.00 and 21.30 UTC on 19th and between 08.00 and 10.00 UTC on the 20th. Latency since has been normal for these connections.

See https://www.novoserve.com/speedtest and download iPerf3 to use with it for the gold standard in speed testing.


Did you give this a go? It work as expected? iPerf3 is what we use professionally to verify performance.

FWIW a reminder you are only paying for a service as far as BT's network. They are not and cannot be held responsible for speeds once you leave their network including to TBB. This holds true whether you're paying for £60 a month FTTP or £thousands for enterprise connectivity.

My BT Hub has had its firmware updated yesterday 6th Oct. I am now back up to 918Mbps down and 95Mbps up on TBB Speed test with little fluctuation no matter what time of day tested.
Odd? but whatever, it is back to what it consistently was for 18 previous months.
