Broadband Speed

[officeman]

Our internet is very slow.  I checked the Broadband speed and was advised that it is very slow.  Can we have an engineer to check our broadband and can you recommend a new package with more speed?

Thank you.

Hi, you can arrange that using this link: Fixing slow broadband and wi-fi speeds | BT Business select Live chat at the bottom of the page to hook up with a tech specialist, the article has additional information on it just in case there's something that can be checked to help speed the service up.

Hello,

To address slow broadband, I recommend starting with the following steps to improve your speed and determine if an engineer visit is necessary:

Check for Network Issues: Make sure the slowdown isn’t due to Wi-Fi congestion. Disconnect any unnecessary devices, test the speed over a wired (Ethernet) connection, and restart your router.

Check for Line Faults: Contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP) to check if there are any known issues with your connection or if a line fault needs investigating. They may be able to remotely diagnose the problem or schedule an engineer.

Upgrade Your Package: ISPs often offer higher-speed packages, especially if your area has access to fiber broadband or advanced options like Fiber to the Premises (FTTP). Depending on availability, this could improve your speeds significantly.

Router Placement and Upgrades: Make sure your router is in a central, open location for better Wi-Fi coverage. Some ISPs provide upgraded routers for faster speeds if you renew your contract or upgrade.
I hope this answer will helps you.
