ping looks nice, i love how it goes from 5 6 7 8 9 LOL, this is in testing phase so not shocked at all, good speeds, as your on XGS now, they can change your speeds all the way up to 10gb down and up which is good.

Progress, but disappointing that they're keeping the upload speeds low.
the installer did say it will change after the trial,

upgraded my lan drivers :)

yep after speed changes you should be on 2.2gbps down and 1gb up i think so atleast. vm testing alot of speeds rn

Wish they would test some speeds in my area, not the same 1130/52 that's been tested for the past century on HFC :P

Just how the Hub behaves. Not uncommon with certain manufacturers. Your actual traffic shouldn't be impacted.
 
no the traffic is just me hammering it, its the saw blade ping lol or is that what you mean? seem weird to not be able to check steady ping etc?

ah yeah I see, could a different router fix this you think? (any recommendations?) tbh I just have the hub setup, with the wifi off, 10gb ports going into the switches etc

grabbed some more pictures, they installed it where I wanted, zero cables on show, they used a 5m length of cable, it went through ok, the cleaning process was fine on one end but on the other took a while,

hub installed upside down for now, due to needing to put the shelf up for it, no need for a connection box inside, and the fiber goes directly into the hub.

under the router for those interested, wifi 6 not covered like previously seen verisons.

can see how it compares to my old connection.

It would absolutely fix it. I don't have a realistic router recommendation: have you seen mine? I'm the last person to ask :D
