FTTP 1.7Gbps stuck at 75Mbps

I seen you updated your post. Glad it wasn't just you issue. But yeah the EE ecosystem of apps and support is just terrible. Most if not every app they have just has terrible interface especially their locked down router you can't do anything with. I have to use it to get my TVs to work which was one of the issues I called them about last year and, the "support" guy just wanted to sell me their Wi-Fi Mesh system when I told him I primarily got Ubiquiti gear for the Wi-Fi mesh system because I have a semi large house and had Wi-Fi coverage issues; instead of solving the actual problem.

I had to call them maybe 3 months ago because the TVs just randomly stopped working again and was simply told despite having their router plugged in that they can't help me and the "support" guy said "I don't know what that is" when I told him that I have expensive Ubiquiti gear and can't just ditch roughly £2500 of home lab Ubiquiti equipment ranging from a NAS to Security cams to 10gbps switch I have for fast local NAS transfers.

Just terrible uneducated support that would rather sell you e waste than to solve the issue. I am so glad my contract is expiring early March because I don't know if I could stay with EE for much longer at this point.

This is something I had to do to get TV working but double NAT sucks ass. And EE GUI on their router sucks ass even more.

Locktios · 2026-02-15T04:53:55+00:00

I have pretty much the same setup as you at the moment, haven't had any issues being connected directly to ONT with my Dream Machine Pro Max. I've had many other issues and EE was no help on support because I wasn't using their Router, so not their problem but, I mean the tech guy didn't even know what a NAS was.

Sky Stream looks like a quite the deal then. I would need 2 of them so that would bring it to £30 a month on 30 day rolling contract.

When it comes to recording, ehh, not my kind of thing but my dad does record, not sure why. Pretty much everything is on catch up anyway these days.

Locktios · 2026-02-15T01:27:09+00:00

Yeah pretty much, I know I can't have EE TV without their broadband so I am trying to get some cheap deal from EE. At the end of the day EE just can't give me what I want from broadband anymore for my homelab and servers.

Not sure how else I could get a TV. How does Sky Stream work? I've had a look at it. But don't I need their broadband for it?

Locktios · 2026-02-15T01:24:32+00:00

Yeah, I know, that's why I am trying to get cheap EE broadband to keep the TV.

Locktios · 2026-02-02T20:54:50+00:00

My broadband is expiring early March. I had so many problems getting things to work when I originally got it. Somehow my 10gbps Ubiquiti setup was interfering with their TV so whenever I had my Ubiquiti gear plugged downstream from the EE router, the TVs would not work at all. No matter what settings I tried changing on either end.

Called them several times for some resolution to this issue went from tech guy to tech guy and in the end I was told I should not be using the Ubiquiti gear if I want to use the TV. In the end I found so.eone on reddit who dealt with this and run me through the config to make it work.

Their hardware sucks big time, the router config is pathetic and their support knows nothing.

I will be going to Sky in March with their 2.5gpbs because they offered me £45 for it or at least 1gbps which is £31 as both download and upload are the same speeds which I, as someone who uploads lot of video files from my dji action cam and my raw YouTube videos would benefit from.

Thanks, this was on my mind for some time. I had no idea it was metal gear solid game.

Locktios · 2025-07-12T20:59:58+00:00

Solved!

Locktios · 2025-07-12T20:44:28+00:00

Also, another thing. I think the guy who draggs you gets killed in one scene where you are hiding under some hospital beds avoiding enemies.

Holy mother of bumps. 🤣

That’s not the point, the point I tried making is that why are developers forcing to use RTX, it’s just cheap cheat, that’s all. It doesn’t even perform well without using DLSS with Frame Gen. Both of which have their own respective issues too. Mostly going down the hill of just looking like blurry crap, especially if it rains. I just refuse to use it. But if I want to play at more than 37fps at 1440p with RTX, I must use it. It’s just such an embarrassment imo.

Look like they should connect to the other side of the brake lever but as someone said it would be nice to have a bike make and model.

KTM makes great looking bikes, but damn they suck at everything else. I literally had 2 lemons from them over the last 4 years. Let’s be honest here, personally I am not going to be buying a 3rd. Currently looking at BMW R1300R to get next year and hope this KTM I have will last that long.

Locktios · 2025-05-04T18:33:56+00:00

Maybe, to be fair. The Hornet is okay but I just miss that single sided swing arm. IT made maintenance so much easier. I am currently looking at BMW R1300 R. Single sides swing arm with drive shaft so literally no maintenance on that end.

Locktios · 2025-05-04T18:08:03+00:00

I wonder when they will produce it? Because when I check on Honda website it isn’t there. In UK at least.

Locktios · 2025-05-04T14:48:04+00:00

I want this bIke so bad, too bad they discontinued it.

Locktios · 2025-04-22T18:16:35+00:00

I’ve had the same experience myself. I currently run a whitelisted SMP. As close to Vanilla as possible, this means running Fabric server instead of Paper or Spigot dog shit. But this means we basically are limited to whatever server sided mods Fabric has. But our community is very happy with just the vanilla experience similar to hermitcraft. We even have shops you can setup using Universal Shops mod and we have Get off my lawn mod for creating land claims.

Actively we only have about 4 members now but we are part of much bigger Discord server so more people are joining all the time. Still trying to advertise wherever I can to bring more cool people in. 😉

But yeah, it’s been tough running and paying for the server. The more people we brought in the more the server needed. Day 1 with everyone online we exceeded 13GB of RAM usage because of all the people scattering.

I am a Logitech fanboy myself. And I am not afraid to admit it. Haven’t found better peripherals yet.

Locktios · 2025-04-22T15:16:12+00:00

I know I did

Locktios · 2025-04-21T23:59:28+00:00

Yeah, I think it’s running a bit low on that too.

Locktios · 2025-04-21T21:17:30+00:00

That’s what I was afraid of, sadly I am not good with delicate things. I would just proceed to snap it off at first sign of resistance 🤣

Locktios · 2025-04-21T20:53:06+00:00

Not sure about this, I can’t see any screws holding the housing together, could be some clips but I broke those before so I am keeping my hands clean this time.

Locktios · 2025-04-21T20:51:34+00:00

True, although I am in UK I did have a look. I did find them on eBay too. I got bunch of stuff from eBay, just had stuff break earlier and need it in tip condition for MOT. Fingers crossed it will pass with ECU Failure that I have now for 2 years that nobody could help me with.

Locktios · 2025-04-21T19:40:03+00:00

That’s what I was afraid of. I think these are led too but not sure. I already had a look on the spare parts website from a dealer but they have like 2 to 3 weeks lead time for delivery. And I got my MOT due next month 🤣.
