Speed problem

My wired PC gets about 40 Mbps against a 700 Mbps plan. Pings to the hub show 7 ms minimum with spikes over 200 ms. It was fine before. I think the extender link is poor. I have an extender plugged in via ethernet into my pc and a seperate extender in my room, which I think helps it a bit. Any help is appreciated.

@gabnix12 You need to switch all the extenders off and connect to the EE Hub only as your first test, nothing else until you do that. Are your extenders from EE or a third party type, best say what you have, see the link for the pics.

What speeds are reported by running the speed test in the EE app? That will not only measure the raw BB connection speeds you are getting at the router as well as speeds to the device from which you are testing.
