Hey all,

I moved my network gear and doing so, rebooted everything but now my speed profile with 2degrees has changed from 300/100 to 100/100. In trying to solve the issue I have also rebooted the ONT but that hasn't changed anything.

Ticket has been raised with 2Degrees (waiting to hear back) but more wondering if anyone else has noticed anything?

I am running TP Link Omada gear instead of fritzbox (will try and change to fritzbox today to double check - just need to find time when internet can go down) but all the link speeds are 1Gbps and speed tests are around 99-106Mbps so don't think its an issue with cabling.

I am also on a static IP and IPv6 is on via DHCPv6. I think only issue is MTU size is 1492 which is what TP Link Omada supports, but this didn't effect speed before.

Used an old network cable that can't pass Gigabit? That'll limit you to 100/100!

I remember when 100Mbps Ethernet was exciting and fast....

In this particular case, it was a QoS profile issue at the 2degrees end.

One indicator for someone who has gone from a 100/20 plan to a higher plan that it's the QoS profile is that the Downstream speed maxes out at 100Mpbs, while the upstream is the max of the plan (so a 300/100 may appear as a 100/100).

I’ve have the same issue, saw my samknows report for February and around 12 of Feb it drops from 300 to 100. Maybe this is not an isolated issue.

I just noticed I have the same issue! My connection has dropped from 300 to 100, I guess I'll need to give 2degrees a call tomorrow...

Hey how do I check my speed profile? I get the sense my connection is not achieving the expected speeds...

you talk to your provider or you test via ethernet and see what speeds you get. do the second first.
