I’m not getting the speeds I signed up for

For customers with our Fritz/Zyxel routers only:  (Linksys customers please click here)

To experience the full speeds to a single wireless device such as a laptop, tablet, or smartphone, the device needs to be connected to the high frequency TruespeedUltra-XXXX network from your Truespeed router.

You have two networks transmitting from your router: Truespeed-XXXX and TrueSpeedUltra-XXXX and not all devices can connect to the higher frequency TruespeedUltra-XXXX network.

If you’re having difficulty finding TruespeedUltra Wi-Fi read this article

To speed test your Truespeed connection, please use Speedtest by Ookla using the server closest to you. Go to: www.speedtest.net

Standing next to your Truespeed router and ensuring your device is connected to TrueSpeedUltra-XXXX, press GO.

This will show the Download Speed in Mbps – Megabits per second (data into your device) and an Upload Speed (data coming from your device).

Have a Smart Phone or Tablet? Then try downloading the Ookla App. Available to download via the App Store (Apple iOS) or Google Play Store (Android).

Good to note: If other devices are using the connection when running a speed test; this will affect the results. So if you want to see the full speed available, turn off the Wi-Fi on other devices.

Please note: We recommend testing on an additional device to make sure the issue is not isolated to one device.
