I rebooted the ont & router and now my speeds have been doubled.
Weird issue, I'm getting 20Mbs via wifi on my phone (yes both my sims and cellular data is disabled just incase), I'm only getting 10Mbs on my PC which is via a wired 1Gbs LAN connection. My upload speed on both wifi/lan are still stuck at 5Mbs.
Any ideas?

What area ? nothing yet for me it seems. PTA East
garden route
Do you have a bigger screen? I can't read that.Screenshot of speeds.
BTW this is the xDSL section.
Hmm, I got warned the minute I went over 300Gbs. Although to be fair, don't think they throttled me.
But was usually late in the month as its only used for netflix for one person.

Only 2mbps, 4mbps and 8mbps ADSL users get speed upgrade.
Yeah, I'm on 4mbps. I've noticed there is no throttle threshold in the dashboard anymore.

In case no-one noticed before:
“In addition, we have recently revamped our Internet Uncapped Product offerings for home broadband connectivity with the removal of FUP (Fair Usage Policies) from Uncapped products, this means no more throttling of subscriber throughput when specific data thresholds are reached.”
From https://www.itnewsafrica.com/2020/0...aster-fibre-for-free-during-stage-4-lockdown/ (but I thought I saw it in other places too e.g. TechCentral; of course it's unlikely to make the news on MyBroadband ...).

They wrote about it more than two weeks ago, and did a followup a week later.
