    I had to unplug the fibre patch from the ONT as I was moving the ethernet cable.

    I had a constant latency of 1ms before but now im getting around 5/6ms
    the speed remain the same (a bit up at the moment) around 935Mbps.

    I know 5ms is great but its just annoying me as I had 1 for a year...

    I could probably try to move the fibre cable around (seems like a awful idea)

    anyway not sure what I'm looking for here as I guess there is not much to do?

    UPDATE : all sorted !

    Hello

    I would be interested to know how did you sort it, as I am currently have latency of 10-12ms up from 3ms but unlike you my speeds dropped by around 50%.

    I think it went back to normal by itself after a while

    Are you still getting the speeds quoted in your original post and if if so mind me asking who is your ISP?

    Digiweb, I have some speed issue but that due to my own hardware, when I plug digiweb’s router I get around 940Mbps + (at least last time I checked but I don’t use they router)
