Back to my custom config of my @NOW router. Least we now know the backup and restore config in the router works OK. 😉
Replying to @NOWHelpTeam
Yes, I have replied and sent all data to be passed on as I am too busy to email at this time.

Thanks. Just to show the issue is real and the router config was irrelevant. I have backed up the router and reset it to factory, then performed a speed test with no change.

You should never need to ask for a factory reset. I'm an IT pro and have a custom config. Asking this of a novice would be bad, settings like disabling of WPS or upnp done prior maybe forgotten to be reinstated. Yes and it did not show visible issues, but there obviously is.

Also just to show. Here is the connection on my main laptop to the @NOW Hub 2. Not getting much better than this. 😎
Replying to @NOWHelpTeam
Yes they did and escalated the issue to the network team. That is why I mentioned @WeAreOpenreach / @OpenreachHelp in the first tweet, hoping they can quickly fix. Test on Ookla, though the standard is the BT Wholesale one I screen shotted originally.

I have checked the router and it does not require a factory reset.

An additional hint it is a network hardware or configuration issue is the fact it is maxing out at 25mbps.

As I said to the @NOW support team on the phone this morning. I usually see a router reboot at 2am and it was after this today at around 2:30 I was installing @RedHat RHEL 8 on a system and noticed the download speed was shockingly slow.

Wireless and wired. Multiple GNU Linux machines and an Android mobile phone. This is a network issue, I have done all checks and debugged it to that. I have even tested using torrent downloads. Usually the easiest way to max out a current connection.

Upload speed is bang on, just Download that is an issue.

We are way below the minimum 65Mbps I should be getting since early hours of this morning. Reported to the nice folks at @NOW / @NOWHelpTeam and hoping @WeAreOpenreach / @OpenreachHelp can rectify this issue ASAP.
