Common questions

Internet Speed Test Guide — FAQs

Why is my NBN so slow?

The most common causes: ISP CVC congestion (evening peak), router age or placement, device Wi-Fi card issues, incorrect plan for your household size, or technical faults on the line.

How fast should my NBN be?

Your actual speed should be 80–90% of your plan speed. If you're on NBN 50 and getting under 30 Mbps consistently, something is wrong.

Will a new router fix my slow internet?

A new router fixes issues caused by router age, Wi-Fi range, or device limit. It won't fix ISP congestion or plan speed limits.

Do you set up Wi-Fi and routers?

Yes — we provide Wi-Fi setup and mesh network installation across Melbourne's North. We diagnose the cause first so you're not spending on hardware you don't need.
