Re: Extremely Slow Internet
I have a new posting about my new 5G Home Internet slowing down, most often during early evening hours around 5:00 to 7 PM. And I figured out that I can get the speed to somewhat acceptable level by resetting the router. Have you tried that and does it make any change? I am awaiting a reply from anybody on my posting. It's most confusing as to why the reset resolves the issue, but only for a week or so, then the speed nose dives during early evening, which I assume is peak time with gaming and all.19Views0likes0CommentsMy 5G HI gets slow, then speeds up after reset
I am new to the 5G Home Internet package from TMobile. Initially, the system was fine, speed was acceptable no problems with YouTube and Roku streaming. Lately, within the last couple weeks, during the early evening hours, say 5-7 PM, the system starts slowing down. Sometimes it gets so bad that I can not get on the Internet at all. And here is the kicker: All I have to do to get it to go back to normal is just reset the router. Today is a good example: around 2:50 PM, I was getting 540Mbps x 14.50Mbps. Then at 5:01 PM I was down to 27.85 x 0.21. I do a reset, and I jump back to 300 x 18.60. I spoke with Level 1 CSR and finally was speaking to who ever is in Manilla and was advised to place the router as close to the window as possible. I even had the router on the windows sill, but the morning son shines thru so I moved. I found a sweet spot just below the window and thought I had resolved the issue. But and that's when it went down to 27.85 x 0.21, and resolved it by the reset. Anybody have any thoughts on this? Is it my router? Ask for a replacement? Go back to AT&T? Thanks.13Views0likes0Comments
