We've recently had FTTP enabled in the area and I've changed to Sky Ultrafast 1 (150Mbps) via overhead wire to a brand new CSU box on the outside wall and a new ONT internally. It's only been a week but I'm given to understand that FTTP doesn't need to 'stabilise' as FTTC or copper pair need to.
The trouble is, speedtest.net (via the Windows App and website both) has my DL speed all over the place from >70Mbps to 150Mbps even if I do successive tests. Fast.com always shows 150Mbps without fail.
This is from a hard wired desktop Win10 PC with nothing else active.
Sky gave it the expected "you have to give it 10 days to settle" which I think is bollocks.
Is it speedtest.net that's screwed and I'm worrying about nothing or is there a better way to test?
