Broadband report card
I got this email today for my M350 on a hub 5. It's the first such report and was not expected.
We’ve checked your broadband speed 330 times over the last 3 months.
Your M350 Fibre Broadband is ensuring solid home connectivity.
Your results
369.79 Mbps
download speed
36.16 Mbps
upload speed
Wi-Fi
99.935%
uptime
Streaming capacity
13 UHD movies
at the same time
Broadband speed reading: Speed readings were taken across a 90-day period, between August 2026 – November 2026. Speed readings only reflective of holders’ Virgin Media WiFi Hub (package) speed during the time of testing. Number of tests undertaken varies per customer. Average download and upload speeds calculated using all available speed test data. This may or may not include speed tests run during peak times. Speed tests are to the WiFi Hub only, not across the home for individual digital devices.
My comments: the hub 5 is performing slightly above its rated tier. This doesn't surprise me as although my coaxial drop cable is 21 years old and the cabinet 28 years old, I get a good clean signal from this ageing HFC network. It helps that I had the F connector at the cabinet replaced and plugged into another tap, the F connector and splitter in my home also replaced.

Re: Broadband report card
I got the same email, also on M350
I gave it a skim, ignored the crap about what I could watch in UHD and deleted it.
Due to my old 3rd party router, this is it for me, and good enough for what I do 
Download 93.10 Mbps
Upload 37.03 Mbps
edit: I'm still on a Hub 3 I think

Pretty poor for M350, is your router only using a 100Mbps port ?

Re: Broadband report card
The hub 3 is capable of supporting up to M600, so you should not be getting a mere 93.10 Mbps on M350.
