    Ridiculous... Have just downloaded the seventh season of madmen in HD in about 10 minutes....

    26 meg the PS4 told me when I did the network test.... Sky say 38 guaranteed .. I suppose they need time to let the line settle. Will give them a call tomorrow

    I hope that is not a complaint on how slow it is already. :o

    On a serious note run the speed test with a PC connected to the router by an ethernet cable and see what results you get. Also don't forget the consoles will probably not give an accurate speed test figure and as you say the line speed should settle over the next few days.

    I think I can safely say my xbone woes are over

    I find the PS4's speed test to be inaccurate, much like the PS3's.

    Run a wired speed test on your PC, as gds1972 said.

    SKY have just run a line test and it is just short of 41 meg...:)

    they advised me to call back in 10 days to allow the line to settle down

    DR3 took an hour 2 install last night via disk on standby! 😳 ... don't know whether that's good or bad! :blush: ... I'd imagine the updates were downloaded fast tho! 😉

    So now you can vouch that I wasn't embellishing the truth when I said I've had no problems with installs or waiting times for anything. I'm really glad it's working well for you now, Fibre is essential for this gen IMO.

    Thank you m8... But I always knew it was my connection, I wouldn't have suggested otherwise🎅🎄

    it was great fun last night and this morning as I no longer have that 1 second lag anymore. Might even try a COD game to see the difference there :)
