I'm on Sky Fibre and seeing a big difference in the upload speed of the 8800NL compared to the SR102.
My connection is syncing at around 79mbps down, 19mbps up on both of the routers, but when testing via speedtest.net there is a big difference in the upload speeds:
SR102
Ping 13ms
43mbps down
16mbps up
8800NL
Ping 12ms
43mbps down
1.3mbps up
Perhaps I'm reading too much into the speedtest.net results (are they a good guide?) Which page of info would be most useful for me to post here from the 8800NL? I'll be home later and can upload something a bit more useful than the above!
I'm guessing I must need to tweak a setting somewhere. I followed the instructions here to setup the 8800NL:

Many thanks
8800NL upload 1.3mbps, Sky Hub SR102 upload 16mbps

Are you testing the speeds using a wireless connection or a wired connection?

I was testing both on a wired connection (8800NL on port 1), with nothing else plugged in and the wireless disabled on the 8800NL.
Whatever it was though, its cleared up now as testing again today and I'm getting consistent full speeds with the 8800NL. I've not changed anything, so its likely operator error - sorry.
Ping 8ms
74.6mbps down
18.8mbps up
Thats it for the Sky router, boxed and put away.
Sorry for the wild goose chase.
