Right so my net is still being a complete nightmare on the Mac.
Not sure what to troubleshoot. Router seems okay, I've checked for packet loss and it's okay. It's just slow as f**k often, sometimes the page will load to say 80-90% then just stop.
I'm even starting to think it may be my faithful Macbook lol.
I have the 20mb package with Virgin. Tried SpeedTest several times. A handful of times I've had either 1 or 2 mb which is just shocking. At the time of writing this I have 9mb. I'm upstairs so I know I'm not gonna get 20mb but still. My Dad uses the old laptop which I set up Virgin broadband on so I checked that earlier and got 17mb speed without any of the lag / non loading. With the Mac right next to it I got 10mb speed after doing the test straight after I did it on the Windows laptop.
Really is driving me mental because I use the net for personal work at home as opposed to just general browsing.
Is there any problems I could be having or is it a case of getting a Virgin engineer out? I'm thinking of upgrading to 50mb but that seems pointless at present!
