Worried about my download speeds

i pay for VM 10 MB internet package and for the past few days these are the speeds i have been receiving



i'm not complaining obviously, but VM has not contacted me about any kind of upgrade and im now wondering if they are going to charge me extra for it?

It's your Kaspersky firewall or similar antivirus most likely.

If it's something odd you aren't going to get charged extra for it as it's a fault. Just don't reboot your modem.

What modem do you have? And paste the config page her (making sure you remove any MAC addresses so any of the lurking VM bods can't 'fix' this :p )

It won't show on the config page, very occasionally rate limiting doesn't work properly downstream.

Enjoy it while it lasts sir.
