Hello
Is anyone using EE Broadband here or has recently used them in the last year or so? Hopefully on a FTTC plan with 80Mb?
If so, do you have any advice or views on their network, and as an ISP as a whole?
Thanks

240 opinions there for February. More than 300 for December and every earlier month shown. (Hover the cursor over a column to see how many rated that ISP for the month).
My broadband basic info/help site - www.robertos.me.uk. Domains, site and mail hosting - Tsohost.
Connection - Three 4G, tbb tests normally 35-45Mpbs down, 65Mbps off-peak, 9-24 up.

Thanks for the link, I was looking for something like that
Is there anyway to lookup speedtests performed on an ISP? And hopefully be able to filter them by the package the user is paying for?
I found this, https://www.thinkbroadband.com/news/8338-uk-broadban...
Any idea why "EE Fibre Plus FTTC 80/20" has a "E (2.1)" rating?

An EE user with good FTTC speeds but low quality score

A BT user with a good quality score and FTTC speeds

The difference is the time it takes to reach the top speeds
This has been ongoing for a long time with EE, reasons unknown

I hadn't seen that table before and it will need a fair bit of study. But at the bottom is an explanatory "Note" about exactly your question.

Ah, I see, thanks for the response
Are you aware if it affects 100% of the EE Broadband speedtests or just most (like 50 or 60%)?
Do you consider it a severe issue that would cause you to not personally use EE Broadband?

Looks like I missed that part, thanks for pointing it out

We report median figures for averages and remember we can only report on what we see, so may be lots who are happy that we don't see.
Not going to recommend a provider for you personally, because the questions are such that I'd be worried if a recommendation did not reach your expectations

I see
Do you log/maintain any data on the speed ramp up duration? So I could see whether we are talking about a large majority of EE's customers or even if that % of users is increasing or decreasing?
I'm asking as, even though I may be entirely wrong, I'm hoping it is an issue with older routers EE has provided in the past (The brightbox hopefully) and that third party routers and their new Smart Hub are free of the issue.

If you are willing to pay for the time to pull that data and perform the analysis.
We went down the route of asking people the router model but it did not reveal any obvious pattern.
