Sort it out with your provider

Is it your broadband, or your Wi-Fi?

“My broadband has been dropping for five days.” We turn that into real evidence — cabled speed, Wi-Fi speed, packet loss, what you've already tried — then tell you honestly whether to raise it with your provider or fix it at home. We keep the case, so you never start from scratch again.

Tell us about the problem

Case WX-WLIQNB

Answer what you can. Every answer makes the evidence stronger — you don't need all of them.

Who is your broadband provider?Which router or hub?It's usually written on the box, e.g. Smart Hub 2.When did it start?How many days has it been going on?

What actually happens?

Does it affect everything, or just some things?

Which room is worst?Anything else we should know?For example: mainly the Ring doorbell.

The two numbers that settle it

A speed test with a cable plugged into the hub tells us whether the broadband coming in is healthy. The same test over Wi-Fi tells us what's happening inside your home. Run the free speed test.

Speed you pay for (Mbps)Cabled test (Mbps)Wi-Fi test in the worst room (Mbps)

Packet loss (%)Leave blank if you don't know.Have you restarted the hub?

Is the problem still there afterwards?

Have you reported this before?Add the reference your provider gave you, if you have one.
