Very low upload speed from one device only.
I've just run Speedtest by Ookla from my laptop, phone and tablet. On the phone and tablet upload speed is roughly 20Mbps. From the laptop it's showing about 0.3 Mbps. Download speed is consistent across all devices. Wireless connection to a BT Hub in all cases. Laptop is positioned about 1 foot from the Hub.
Any thoughts on the cause and/or a possible solution. I don't do much uploading other than e-mail so it's not a show stopper.

I've stopped syncing on OneDrive but the speed remains the same.

@HillStreetBlues I have restarted. I power the laptop off when not in use.

Are you using the app or the browser on the laptop? Presumably it's the app on the phone & tablet.
Can you hardwire the laptop and test the speed then?

I have similar issues. We have a vf gigacube in a bedroom for gaming. My desktop computer in an office but it is hardwired via a cable that goes through the loft to the cube. I have constant issues of no upload speed to the desktop. Yet I can get upload to tablet and mobiles for the same sites with no issues via WiFi. I don't understand why the computer which is hard wired has no upload connection.
I did experiment moving the cube to the office and plugging in with a short cable to the computer and did get 2mbps upload, where as the bedroom got absolutely nothing.
I'm considering buying a seperate router just to have in the office for my computer.

Does your PC have WiFi capability and is it turned on? If so, try disabling it, if not then that's very peculiar.
