I've been doing speed tests this morning on my wired device, and seem to only be able to hit 200mbps while I'm on a "2degrees Broadband Unlimited Ultimate Fibre" plan.

Fast.com: 200mbps

Speedtest.net: Various servers, 100 - 200mbps.

Before I contact customer support is anyone else having an issue?

Linux:

sbowness:

I upgraded on Friday and my download was firmly stuck at 100Mbps whilst my upload popped up to 200Mbps. After some tweaking by customer care, I'm now 400 each way and a new 7590 is on its way to replace my 7560 to see if that fixes the issue.

@sbowness How are you testing?

My OP was testing via Browser on my Mac.

Since then I've tested with multiple devices using a combination of Browser and the Speedtest CLI - I get 200mpbs as a wall for download.

My upload speeds can hit higher.
