I am new user of EE broadband and I am having massive upload latency since the beginning. Could anyone help please? EE Help Centre told me they don't see any issue... really sad about that answer.

@patrikmeri1 See the post from @Brownc1 linked below, you are not alone! Still working it out seeing if moving to another supplier is going to sort it out!
EE SMART HUB 2 change to third party due to upload lag - The EE Community
New TP-Link third party has lowered but not cured it fully yet! Are you wired or wireless testing with that bufferbloat run?

My advice is leave EE whilst you still can.
From top to bottom they are beyond useless.
took the no joke 5 times to change my address properly.

I'm on EE Full Fibre (FTTP) & get moderate results with that:
I'm not bothered as I'm not a gamer.
You appear to be on partial Fibre (FTTC). Can't you get Full Fibre there?
What does BT Wholesale Broadband Availability Checker estimate for your phone number? Post the whole table and the line above it, blanking out your phone number. If it doesn't recognise your phone number or you don't have one, use the Address Checker.
What is the name of the EE BB plan are you on including its speed? Which EE router & WiFi extenders, if any, do you have (read label or post a pix)?

@patrikmeri1 To conduct a true test i did 3 test's laptop wireless and AV AntiVirus On not any real diff.
PC and Laptop Ethernet connected, AV turned off on both devices, recorded and linked! My Kaspersky Plus AV will slow slightly as it is really inspects packet transfer! As links and Pictures will all appear when they get approved. Should give you all the facts figures, Whole network connected and NOTHING switched off, daughter 4k streaming wife you tubing etc

@patrikmeri1 As a final note will also add as @XRaySpeX NOT a gamer care nada about that at all! but Network is network and devices on it do matter, if you are going to game then you may have to do the extra mile, NO MATTER what that takes!
Edit: forgot to say but it should not matter connection is on Sky FF500 fibre and also Asus Routers!
