    @junententh @OriginBroadband Ah ok. Don’t want to swap provider as no problem with Origin other than this. Might have found a way using port forwarding on the router - fingers crossed

  • badwolfjane jane elledge (@badwolfjane) reported from Bromsgrove, England

    @junententh @OriginBroadband Did you resolve this issue regarding Xbox one double Nat as getting this and it is nothing within our end so something Origin or MS have done?

    @rbs @OriginBroadband trying to pay my bill getting different messages from you both please help

  • CraftyOldGit Mike Wilson 🐟 (@CraftyOldGit) reported

    @editfmah @OriginBroadband Well the problem I was having turns out not to be with Origin. On my iPhone, the SpeedSmart app reports < 5Mbps, the same app on my iPad reports > 35Mbps. Problem lies with phone by the look of it. Mystifying. Will investigate that face plate idea, thanks.

  • HELENSTATHAM2 HELEN STATHAM 🇺🇦🇪🇺 (@HELENSTATHAM2) reported

    @OriginBroadband internet gone crazy last few days. Globe light in router going off then red. Devices say there is WiFi but not connected. Turned off and on, not the solution! Any suggestions?

  • brunhofraga Bruño Fraga (@brunhofraga) reported

    @OriginBroadband I have cancelled my account (C0069251) in early October. You stopped sending me bills but did not cancel my direct debit and keep charging me for a service you are not providing.

  • CraftyOldGit Mike Wilson 🐟 (@CraftyOldGit) reported

    As you were @OriginBroadband — problem seems to be with the SpeedSmart app on my iPhone. Crappy Zoom call quality could be someone else’s problem, too.

  • LeightonLewis4 Leighton Pickering / Lewis (@LeightonLewis4) reported

    Re: Origin Broadband. They sent me a new Router, Yesterday, Guess what ? Still no Signal coming in, They even sent me a letter, Stating, If they get Openreach out, They may charge me, What A Cheek, When I'm entitled to Compensation for loss of service ! @OriginBroadband

  • editfmah Adrian Herridge (@editfmah) reported

    @CraftyOldGit @OriginBroadband You can then see if you are getting 1000's of unrecoverable errors causing it to be slow. Or if you are on a really really old ADSL connection (like I was at Longleat), then I kept getting locked into a very low BRAS profile and it would stay at 1-2 MBs for weeks and slowly climb

  • SpeedSmart SpeedTest SpeedSmart (@SpeedSmart) reported

    @ParkerColin @CraftyOldGit @OriginBroadband Lots of speed tests use servers that are hosted by the ISP you are using. So your traffic never leaves there network. This makes the result unrealistic. What server location are you testing from and what speed are you paying for?
