What speeds are you supposed to get? Unfortunately most broadband contracts only specify a maximum speed, they don't guarantee you'll always be getting it if ever at all. It also depends on how far you are from the origin of the signal. You can try changing isp, complaining unfortunately won't do much for you

What country do you live in? What carrier are you using?

[TripleDigit]

Is this normal?

 

Your country/area/ISP?

 

What is the type and speed of internet you subscribed to?

 

Hardwired or over wifi?

no its not really normal  and im with BT  in the UK and i think we subscripbed to up to 20mb/s and i used a wireless adapter so yes i used wireless

Plug your pc in to the back of your BT home hub and do a speed test then.

If your speed is better it's a wireless issue.

If you have them check your filters that are on your phone cable (going to the home hub) sometimes they can be dodgy

If not ring BT up and ask them to sort it out. (kinldy)

maybe you have downloaded so much that you have been throttled, i just got throttled, my isp (mweb, in south africa) throttles there customers when they download over 70gb over a period of 30 days on a 2mbps line
