Hi @glendvd
Connecting via WiFi will typically give a dip in speeds but yours sounds drastic to me.
Try deleting the WiFi network connection in the device and re set up a fresh connection.
Now some devices prefer a conne tion of 2.4ghz and some prefer 5ghz.
With most routers a person can now split the frequencies to the ones I've mentioned above. Try doing that and then when connecting choose each in turn to see if that helps at all.
Hi thanks for that. I have done the frequency splits several times, as per the instructions several people on the online chats and helplines have repeatedly advised. It never works unfortunately. And in actual fact, since writing my original post, I have noticed it's also the speeds on my ethernet connected device which are being affected so it's not just the wifi.
Also, I've noticed that it's only on an evening and a weekend that this issue occurs, as first thing on a morning my speeds are fine, wifi and ethernet. Yet when i get in from work each night, back down to the 15-20 mark. Then that lasts all night, and all weekend. Which would suggest to me, too many people using the same line/exchange/whatever the correct jargon is? In which case, something needs to be done.
However, as I seem to be getting nowhere with the helpers at Vodafone, who i know do their best, but it simply just isn't helping me, I'm just going to take my business elsewhere. It's a shame as Vodafone have been great till this, but if I can't have my fibre speeds, there's not much point having it is there.
