These problems have only come about over the last 3 weeks, the provider sent a NBN contractor to find and fix the problem.
He stated that there were several problems that may hav e been the problem and he stated that he fels he fixed the problem.

Are you testing over the 2.4ghz? it will be slower than 5ghz. and more sensitive to interference.
