I decided to move from Ziggo to KPN because we recently got fiber in the neighborhood, and KPN is faster.
i ordered the 4Gbps up/down service. They sent me a Fritzbox 5590. I phoned them and said that it won’t work because the Fritzbox only has a 2.5Gbps port to link up with my LAN. I then asked if I can get a KPN Box 14 (which has 10Gbps WAN and LAN ports) but they said that it isn’t ready for shipping.
So I forked out €600 to buy a Ubiquiti Dream Machine Pro Max. I get close to full speed down, but I CANNOT get more than 1Gbps up. I’ve changed cables and SFPs - I cannot get more than 1Gbps UP.
I was on the phone with them for 45mins today. They confirmed that the Fritzbox can’t deliver 4Gbps. They confirmed that they can’t send a KPN BOX 14. And lastly they said they cannot troubleshoot Uniquiti.
I understand that they can’t troubleshoot my device, but then send me a device capable of achieving the speed you are advertising and that I’m paying for!!!
I suspect it has nothing to do with hardware, but somewhere there is an upload rate limit setting on my account, limiting me to 1Gbps UP. But of course they’re saying there is nothing wrong.
I would appreciate the community’s assistance to resolve this - or for KPN to send an engineer, with a KPN 14 box, to test my fiber.
