Ah ok mine was literally a swap from the old Gb router to the Zyxel.My connection isn't being installed till Monday. Have you got a single 10 or 2.5Gb on a PC/Mac to do a full speed test?
Good lord.. 340Mbits of connection overhead lol. Shouldn't laugh, still huge parts of the country stuck on less than 10Mbits ... no reason why these large scale fibre upgrades couldn't have happened a decade ago.Not too shabby!
Wired via new 2.5Gb - USBC eth adapter.

No.. probably should have used the word 'headroom'.. you are paying for 2Gbits.. and their bandwidth limits is set to allow you to download at 2340 so there's 10+% of headroom. At 2Gbits, a little bit of headroom by % is an enormous amount relative to other people's internet connection.How do you mean 'connection overhead'?
Does that mean 'bad'?
Also signed up to the 2G/2G Trooli service with the Zyxel EX5601-T0. Can confirm it's a 2.5 service marketed as 2.0. The ONT, installed Jan 2022 was not changed.
2355 down, 2103 up on today's test.
Also having trouble getting any ipv6 site to work since the new router was installed, exactly like the user above. Will update if I get this working.
My internet became much more stable once I disabled the WAN and LAN ipv6 settings. ipv6 isn't working.Slight update, tried to watch Glasto on Iplayer catch up last night and had several occasions of very slow initial loading, and once had to come out and start again.
Seemed to work ok after that.
Something aint right.
Looks good.Got mine hooked up yesterday. I have an existing Open Reach 1Gbit PON and the installers were fine/preferred to add a second one for Trooli, rather than using the same fibre from the street hatch.. Which is good by me, as it's easier to change to another supplier in the future.

I spent hours trying to get the Zyxel router to work with my Ubiquity switch/router.. it refused to provide the Ubiquity device an regular LAN IP address.. in the end I just got the PPPoE details from the Zyxel router and directly connected the Ubiquity WAN port to the fibre box. Put the Zyxel back in the box. Connection works fine, copied the Mac address for good measure. Trooli do say that's ok on their site, but don't expect any support. I would have left in the provided router for a couple weeks for it to 'settle in'.. as it were (doesn't mean anything today), but I was fed up with messing with it. Especially when their support lines close at 17:30.
Doing those speedtests, it does struggle to get the 2Gb, however this might be my Mac, as the speeds the Ubiquity router itself tests at are fine. 2.2Gb ish down and 1.97Gb up.
