Infinity 2 up and down speed, very slow, huge ping...

Hello wonderful friendly people, i'm looking for a bit of help to narrow down the cause of the terrible internet connection I have.
I live in a flat in a new build block in Bristol, just moved in with the owner who has had a few different connections with different providers in the last few years but have always been really bad service. He is now paying for Infinity 2 but we experience massively varying internet speed, as low as 0.25 Mb and as high as 20Mb download, but upload seems to be a bit more stable.
Streaming netflix, downloading files and general browsing is somtimes OK, but mostly terribly slow. It seems the speed goes up and down constantly, hitting rock bottom very often. Playing games is an absolute nightmare. Ping as low as 5, then shoots up to 500 meaning we can't play at all.
In short, paying a lot for terrible internet. The connection is through the phone line, we have a Homehub 3 but with an ADSL modem, i'm not sure we should be paying for Infinity if it's going through ADSL though? I thought Infinity was only phone line for the last bridge between house and local cabinet?
I think the problem is with dodgy cabling in the flats. From my experience this is where the problem points to but I want to be sure before I go to BT and ask for them to fix their line problems.
Here are some results from the last few days from speedtest.net
Can anyone help me with tests I can do to find where the problems lie, i.e. ping tests, trace routes and the like?
Cheers!

Download speedachieved during the test was - 3.89 Mbps
 For your connection, the acceptable range of speedsis 16 Mbps-77.43 Mbps .
 Additional Information:
 IP Profile for your line is - 77.43 Mbps
Upload speed achieved during the test was - 6.77Mbps
 Additional Information:
 Upstream Rate IP profile on your line is - 20 Mbps
Thanks

  • IOS7 wifi and LTE speed very slow.

    iOS7 wifi and LTE speed very slow compared to iOS6.  This was proven with Safari and using speed test app.

    I have exactly the same problem symptom ever since installing iOS7. Toggling the FaceTime or the LTE settings alleviated the problem until I installed the latest version on IOS (7.0.4- 11B554a). Now the bug is permanent, a Network Reset will not work anymore, a System Reset will work only for the first execution of Speedtest.
    Looks like the network software is throttling LTE speed to the minimum (.50 Mbps) up/download speed no matter what. Now unlimited Data means nothing, maybe AT&T wants me to go to Verizon or Tmobile.
    I reported this problem to AT&T Sept 26 when I first installed IOS7, they told me there was no problem really that I needed to wait for the LTE network congestion to go away...? Since I found a circumvention by toggling LTE I did not pursued the problem...
    After reporting the problem again this morning, they sent me to the AT&T store to change the SIM card.... I will try this and report back if it fixes the problem... Although I doubt it will fix anything but burn and extra hour of my day. The AT&T rep said that if the new SIM card doesn't fix the problem I need to go to Apple for them to give me a new Iphone....???? I guess there are many iPhones gone bad after installing IOS7 (sarcasm).
    If you have this same problem, please post here so that I am able to get back to AT&T with some leverage to get them to remove the choking of LTE. Basically, if everyone accepts the new low speeds, then, unlimited data is no longer a problem for this phone company.

  • Download and Upload Speeds Very Slow

    I have been having problems with my download speeds they are very sluggish only transferring at 12 kb/s and I know that the problem is not with my laptop as I have tried to download something off my ps3 and the connection just seemed to time out this has become very stressful as I have contacted BT and they have found not wrong with my telephone line, I have tried everything to try and solve this issue but all has failed. Please may someone suggest something. Download speed: 176.89 Kbps (0.17 Mbps) Upload Speed: 743 Kbps (0.73 Mbps)

    Hello,
    Just arrived for xmas at my parents house to find they have the same issue as the oringal poster. Router details are. Speedtest.net results showed a download speed of 0.10.....tried different PC's.

  • Replaced HH5 with ECI and now speeds very slow - w...

    I have just put in a Bt openreach modem FTTC VDSL ECI B-FOCUS V - 2FBU/R RTV. B to replace the HH5.
    My speeds have gone from 38/7 to 9/1 - is there something I have done wrong?
    Solved!

    Hi
    Unfortunately the eci/r version of the openreach modem is not working with bts new retransmission stuff (g.inp)
    For now the hg612 3b* is the only openreach modem to consider using until bt openreach get a handle on the problem.

    could the launch agents failing slow the computer or they just don't work. I mean I am willing to upgrade ram but not if there is good chance it won't change speed much. Also to downgrade is it necessary to format the hard drive?

  • USB 3 and Windows 8 very slow

    Greetings.
    I'm new on this forum allthough I have had this mobo about ½ year, but when I tried to get Windows 8 Pro upand running I ran into troubble.
    Intel Rapid Start don't work in Win8, worked really good in Win7
    Can't switch "Windows 8" feature on in BIOS (have read here, that I'm not the only one with that problem)
    But my biggest complain is the performance of USB3. I use it for backup, and it is very slow compared to Windows 7. I can't find any USB3 driver on MSI's download. I know ASUS has made an "USB3 BOOST" but I don't know what it is, or if it is helping. Windows 8 has native driversupport for USB3, but it is only to get it to basic work, much much slower than the same USB3 port in Windows 7. Does anyboby know how to raise the USB3 speed?
    Sorry for my English. As I'm danish, English is not my first language, but I hope you get the meaning of this 

    Could well be a driver issue as you mentioned. MSI doesn't make the drivers, they are supplied new ones by the vendor of the hardware. Normally they are tested by the MSI engineers first, certified to be good, and then released on their webite for download. The growing pains of 'Vista' 8 (sarcasm) continue!

  • When using the camera downloader in Adobe Bridge CS6 with Nikon D5200 we are unable to see previews of the photos and it is very slow to download. The issue occurs under a the users rights, but not under admin level. This is a new issue

    When using the camera downloader in Adobe Bridge CS6 with Nikon D5200 we are unable to see previews of the photos and it is very slow to download. The issue occurs under a the users rights, but not under admin level. This is a new issue.

    Hi Jdentremont,
    Lync client gets user photos by first querying the Address Book Web Query (ABWQ) service on the server, which is exposed through the Distribution List Expansion web service. The client receives
    the image file and then copies it to the user's cache to avoid downloading the image each time it needs to be displayed. The attribute values returned from the query are also stored in the cached Address Book Service entry for the user. The Address Book Service
    deletes all cached images every 24 hours, which means that it can take up to 24 hours for new user images to be updated in the cache on the server.
    To troubleshoot your problem, please follow the steps below:
    1.  Navigate to
     “X:\share\1-WebServices-1\ABfiles\000000000\000000000” folder. (ABS file share)
    You should see some photo files in this folder as the following screenshot.
    2. Delete all the files in this folder.
    3. On test PC, delete local cache files.
    %userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync\[email protected]
    4. Sign-in Lync with the test account.
    5. Go back to the ABS file share, check if there is any Photo file in the folder.
    Best regards,
    Eric

    FCP, and all software on OSX, has a few different "preference" files (the extension is .plist), which store all your user settings. Each time you resize a window, change a setting, anything, this file is re-written. Kinda easy to see how they would become corrupt every now and then.
    -Close FCP
    -Navigate to User>Library>Preferences and delete com.apple.FinalCutPro.plist
    -Navigate to User>Library>Preferences>Final Cut Pro User Data and delete Final Cut Pro 5.0 Prefs
    -Empty your trash
    Relaunch FCP and see if that worked.
    Download FCP Rescue to make this process easier in the future. When you have FCP running really smooth, open FCP Rescue and create a backup of your preference files. If it starts acting wanky, just run FCP Rescue and Restore your backup preferences. Works really slick, and it's free.
    EDIT: Or use the really simple explaination that X posted as I was typing.

  • My iPod touch is downloading and updating apps very slow more than an hour.

    My iPod touch 4th gen 32gb verson 4.3.1 is downloading and updating apps very slow more than an hour. I just got it a day ago and I backed up all my apps music and pictures and videos from iTunes. Few months ago I had an iPod touch but I lost it and it was working fine. Luckily before I lost it i backed up everything to iTunes so now everything that was in my old iPod is now in my new iPod. Anyways, When I first bought it I straight away backed up everything and saw that i had many updates on my apps. I started updating it all at once but even the first one was not loading at all and mty ipod was hanging many times during the updates so i cancelled all the updates. i even tried it on my computer and it was taking forever but my laptop does updating and downloading apps slower than my ipod so that doesnt matter. Even when I download an app on my iPod now its take more that an hour. So i was wondering, is my iPod slow cause I backed up too many things when i just got it . I have about 120 apps 150 plus photos and 70 videos and I backed it up all in one night on the day i got my ipod. So now I'm restoring my iPod and updating it to IOS 5 and see what happens. Hopefully it will be faster then but I still need to know what is main problem of m iPod hanging and slow updating/downloading. Need a reply ASAP. Thanks

    Still you can switch it off while syncing.
    You can also do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears)

  • Any ideas? In the history may iPad never crashed but after updating to iOS 5 it crashed every 30 minutes, and browsing is very slow

    Any ideas? In the history may iPad never crashed but after updating to iOS 5 it crashed every 30 minutes, and browsing is very slowAny ideas? In the history may iPad never crashed but after updating to iOS 5 it crashed every 30 minutes, and browsing is very slow

    I found the reason why our iPads are slow after iOS 5!!!!!!!
    What you need to do is this:
    1) launch settings, go to mail contacts and calendars, go to fetch new data, advanced, and set iCloud to fetch.
    2) go back and set an interval of when to fetch. Mine is set for thirty minutes. 
    3) make sure on top push is still on, that means that all your emails will still be pushed, but all the iCloud sync (contacts, calendars, reminders, bookmarks) will happen at the interval you choose.
    Restart the device. Your performance should be 10x faster! No more keyboard lag, nothing! Doing this puts less stress on the A4 chip, which we know we need every bit we can get with it now!!!
    Optional:
    1) in the settings, go to safari.
    2) clear all history and cookies/data
    3) enable private browsing. One of the biggest reasons why devices are slow is because it keeps all the history and cookies in the RAM. You need more RAM to make things faster. By turning on private browsing, it never records it!

    One possible solution would be to organise your inbox into folders.
    Its never relly good on any system to have one folder that has everything in it.
    Try going to you web gui for that mail account and organise your folders and move mails from your inbox into corresponding folders for better organisation.
    Several folders containing the same amount of one folder will usually load a little quicker as the folder may not be accessed to download its content unless veiwed.
    So having 10 folders with organised content, and you inbox as an area thats to hold only new emails would work much much quicker with imap.
    Most imap servers will only update the contents of a folder when its veiwed.
