Recently upgraded from a 2Degrees 100/20 fibre connection to a Vodafone 900/400 fibremax connection. 

Here are some basics: 

• Running a Netgear Nighthawks R8000 router (latest firmware) 

   

  • Also tested with a HG659b router (latest firmware)
  • Tried 3 different ethernet cables from router to ONT (Model 300) 
• Running a Netgear Nighthawk AC7000 wifi network card 

   

  • Netgear Genie software shows 1170mbps connection to router over my home wifi

Speedtest shows my best results is around 200/200 whether I am testing morning, noon or night. I have tried running speedtest via LAN 1GB connection and have similar results. 

I totally appreciate that ISP specific router ensures like the Ultra Hub Modem from Vodafone would be the best way to go. But .... surely, running the kind of hardware I am I should expect at least 50% of the speed advertised (450) 

I have logged an issue with a human via Vodafone chat, and a technician will be checking and checked the vodafone bring your own modem settings against mine.
