I last posted regarding the 633 router that would not accept my password. I had to have help in the end but went back to my old router on the patient Indian gentleman's advice as he thought the 633 was faulty.
A new 633 arrived within 24 hours. Great!
My speed which had been a poor 0.51 with the first 633 ,dropped to 0.34 with the new 633.
The speed test on the TT website timed out!
I went through all the online help procedures but had to contact Help again. The Indian woman was patient and helpful and I was advised that routers take time to settle in. I accepted this and checked my speed this morning. : 0.18! Re-starting the router did result in some speed gain as it went up to 0.22.
I have unplugged everything and returned to my old 3780. My speed immediately registered 1.08. This will seem very low to many of you but is the most I can get in this former black spot area. (Hopefully fibre is promised next year).
This proves that there is nothing wrong with our telephone lines, nor with my setting-up procedure. The 633 surely, must be at fault?
I have checked Posts here and see that many people complain about the 633's poor performance. For a "super" router this is a very sad state of affairs.
All I can hope for now is that my 3780 keeps plodding on!
