MATE is partnering with tech2<\/a>, a telecommunications specialist, to help our customers get the best results from their internet service.<\/p>\n To ensure our mates have a quality in-home Wi-Fi experience, selected MATE customers will receive an in-home internet assessment from tech2. An experienced tech2 telco technician will visit their home, perform an in-depth diagnosis, and will then aim to resolve any issues within their home network.<\/p>\n nbn technology type: Fibre to the Premises (FTTP)<\/a>\n MATE nbn plan speed: Ripper 50\/20<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/a>\n The customer had previously contacted our support team to report slow internet speeds and dropouts at specific times of the day. The customer advised our team that his speed test results don’t match expectations based on the speeds of his plan. He also advised that he usually experiences poor speeds over Wi-Fi and dropouts in his home when using devices upstairs.<\/p>\n The customer had a double-story home and was using a MATE-supplied NetComm NF18AC modem\/router which is a mid-range device. The modem\/router was located in a Hills Home Hub Comms cabinet in the garage.<\/p>\n During the visit, initial testing showed a download speed over Wi-Fi of just 3.62Mbps from the NetComm NF18AC modem\/router in the problem area upstairs.<\/p>\n The tech2 technician checked all internal data ports in the customers home – firstly, the outlets upstairs were traced back to the comms cabinet and discovered that only one was data, the other was telephony. The pins in the connector were mismatched and also had missing pins. The CAT6 keystone was also faulty. The tech2 technician replaced the keystone and re-terminated the CAT6 cable to the comms cabinet.<\/p>\n Best plan for 1-2 people<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n *For first 6 mths with BINGE25<\/p>\r\n Then reverts to $76\/mth<\/span>\r\n <\/div>\r\n Typical busy period download speed (7pm to 11 pm)<\/p>\r\n *Speeds may be lower on FTTN\/B, FTTC<\/span>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/a>\r\n Technical information<\/h4>\n
