    Hi Folks,


    anyone else seen a much deteriorating service here?


    I used to get 40-60 mb down and 8-10 up.


    All i am seeing these days is 2-11 up and 0.1-3 up.


    Hovering over the cancel button. Starlink my last option due to rural location.

    Strangely this seems to have gone back to how it was. Getting 80 down and 5 up for the last few days. Was just about to click the Starlink button.

    It sounds like your local mast was down temporarily and you were re-directed to the next closest mast.


    You can usually call your provider, give them eircode and ask if there are any issues with your local mast. But at least it's sorted now.

    I did call. The operator put me on mute and came back a minute or two later saying that the engineer checked the area and all was okay. I am stuck in contract till February so will see how it goes for the next month or two speed is just about acceptable. Realistically Starlink is my only other option.
