Re: 10 meg unlimited?
 

jtwn yeah, seriously its never been this bad before, at 1am I am usually hovering around 3-5mbit by 1am and friday nights are usually the best night of the week so would be higher. I got a sudden drop on an already below par connection and flipped.

now its better

Re: 10 meg unlimited?
 

well if my last 24hrs are anything to go by looks like I just had another hit in performance its as if they just moved some more customers to my ubr.

a download from 2am to 6am failed to hit max speed at all and it appears their was some sort of contention throughout. I also did a speedtest at just after midday today and was under 3mbit.

So it now may be possible that if this level stays I will have no bursting to 10mbit at all and have more then half the day below 3mbit. That must be quite some overselling or a bad unoticed fault.

Re: 10 meg unlimited?
 

I'd like to suggest you ring technical support but I'd suspect that to be pointless.

Re: 10 meg unlimited?
 

I last spoke to them yesterday and yes you right it would be pointless, things are happening in april and everyone I have spoken to who has given me useful information is either unoffical contact or from retentions. Customer services and tech support have both fodged me off.
