du internet slow: prove it before you change anything

Steps

1. Test with a cable into the router, or stand next to it, at 20:00-23:00 - peak load is when promises break.
2. Check the device list - one phone updating or a laptop backing up can eat the whole pipe.
3. If the wired test fails, run a speed test on the du app so the result lands in their system, then open the ticket with that reference.

What the wording of these searches tells you

• These phrasings describe a total loss, so start at the indicator lights and the account status, not at the wifi settings; a red WAN light is not a channel problem.

Coverage map: every phrasing this page answers

Every row is a real query inside A speed test that counts as evidence: which server, which with its measured volume and difficulty. A guide that cannot answer all of them is not a guide for the topic, which is why the list is printed.

Checklist before you act

• Five tests across the day, wired, screenshotted
• Same server and same device each time
• Note whether wifi or cable was used
• Enable QoS on the machine that matters
• Move large transfers out of peak hours
• Name the exact phrase you searched - "du broadband speed test" - in your first message, because it selects the queue your case belongs to.

Mistakes that cost people money

• Accepting a verbal closure with no reference number
• Changing two variables at once, so neither result means anything
• Deciding from one data point instead of a pattern
• Describing the symptom without the time it happens
• And the structural one for du broadband speed test: writing advice for 30 phrasings under a network & speeds heading and leaving the account-specific number unverified.

How to read the numbers on this page

30 phrasings and 210 searches a month is not one question but a family of them, opening on du, net, ookla, test. That mix is why a price table alone fails here: each phrasing asks about a different stage of the same decision.

Average difficulty across the tracked phrasings is 0. Low difficulty at this volume usually means the ranking pages are thin listings, so a page that walks through the check order competes on usefulness rather than on tricks.

Read the cost table as arithmetic, not as an offer: it multiplies the published tier price by the contract length and shows what a VAT-inclusive quote would add. Installation, device instalments and account credits are not in it, because only your address and account can settle those.
