I have Vodafone 100/20 over Openreach FTTP, get around 110 down on avg. I don’t use the Vodafone router, I have it running through a Unifi USG, into a POE Switch and Unifi UAP-AC-LR. Works perfectly and great signal around the house
WI-FI 6 Router or Distributer such as Google Home will only make a difference to kit that is WI-FI 6 enabled. What KIT do you have that is able to receive Wi-Fi 6? You mentioned IPV6 during the video a couple of times, that is to do with with website pages and something completely different. EE is part of BT, all BT broadband will be rebranded to EE for retail customers, the BT brand will be for business customers only
I also used to have Virgin Media . I now have BT Full fibre . I get 1000mb down 120mb up . I got the BT discs but found them useless . So got 2 eero 6+ units . So I now get 560mb on WIFI . Also got 2 goCoax adapters . Similar to power line adapters but the goCoax adapters sent the internet via the existing Virgin Media coax i have in my home . Using the coax cable adapters I get 1000mb down 120mb up .
I have the same BT FTTP as you, with price hike this is now £68.62 which is an eye-watering monthly cost. Analysing our usage, we (2 adults 3 kids) only ever seem to use a maximum bandwidth usage of about 500mb/s, so while the 900/110 product is a nice thing to have, it’s ultimately unnecessary for most people. At renewal I’ll probably be looking to switch to a cheaper plan with about half the speed.
Good Video Steve we are waiting for upgrade by BT to FTTP should be in next few months not a fan of Google Tech I’ve always used Netgear. Wifi 6\6e is a growing standard with more and more companies supporting it.
Enjoyable video again Steve. I've recently signed back up with Virgin but agree their WiFi range is pretty poor. Not really looked into the Google Mesh but will take a look for future reference.
@@stevemarruk had it for over a year and a half, no problems at all, it really is a power house, connected to 32 devices and 3 gaming pcs its also running my home security, but i suppose its only good if you are in a good 5g area 🤣
So what broadband and WiFi have you got and are you happy with it?
Great video Steve as all ways good content , keep up the good work. 👍
Thank you buddy
Hi can you plug in the Google WiFi straight into the ont box , bypassing the BT hub?
I got EE Broadband and they are fantastic.
I thinking of changing from BT to EE

Very true I don’t have the WiFi 6 kit yet as not needed it but interested in investing

Totally agree
Got BT fibre & boardband it amazing very good faster quick brought that 2 year ago really enjoyed
Yeah not had an issue myself for well over a year

Thank you 🙏 yeah Netgear is okay most of them do the job i just like how Google does it but each to their own.

Yeah best thing I did with virgin was the Google Mesh
You can currently get the BT 500 Meg package for £29.99
Yeah mine is up for renewal so might try that or see what EE offer
crazy to think your paying £60 when im getting the same type of speeds and latency with a £20 5g three home hub
Ouch! Yeah that bloody is crazy how’s it going ?

It’s a two year contract. Or did you buy the router out right? And then buy a Three sim?
2year deal
@@craigr9881 2 year contract, was a gamble but no fibre in sight here , so at £20 i can live with 👌
None of the speakers you mentioned will benefit with WI-FI 6 as they aren’t WI-FI 6 enabled Steve
Exactly which is why I am not overly fussed at the moment even my MacBook is 2017 i7 32GB doesn’t have it.
I wouldn’t use any google kit, far too intrusive they track absolutely everything
I’m
Not fussed got nothing to hide
I pay £25 a month for Virgin Media and receive 500 mb.
In all fairness unless you have WiFi 6 and WiFi capable devices 500mb over 80211n is perfect.
@@stevemarruk have you done a review of the ROKU a streaming box Steve ? It’s a nice piece of kit? May make a nice video
Consider hiding your WAN IP address when using speed test
Okay but is dynamic it will change
