Solved BYHs being slow?

[Sussex19]

I am on BYHs as well, and half the time it seems to be very slow. It has got to the point where I can hardly reply to people, as it take forever to load.
We do have very slow internet here, but BYCs is working fine.
Any thoughts on this?

Can you run a speed test and post a screenshot of the results? Google speed test.

I'm not sure how to take a screen shot on this computer.
But I did it and it says 0.5Mbps download, and 1.6Mbps upload, if that helps.

Unfortunately that is extremely slow and probably your main issue.

Do you have a cell phone you can run the same speed test on?



Mine speed test right now.
My speed actually changes throughout the day.

@Sussex19, is BYH still slow?

Not as bad, still just a bit slower then BYC, but quite useable.
Sorry I never said that it had improved, I've been a bit busy, and forgot about it.

Thanks for the update.

Yeah, I know.
It is always fairly slow, and then we used up our data and it slowed even more.
There's not much point in trying the phone, cause I would have to go and stand in the paddock, and I don't think it would be much better.
I was just puzzled because BYC was still working perfectly!
