Part # APS003, i'll have a look at the plug later on as i don't want to bring my network down just yet, it's dark where the plug is so can't see :)

heh I have stopped caring since BT announced my area for infinity, as long as this service remains useable I will be ok for 3 months until infinity is available. Also I have a need for the 20mbit upload it will bring as well now so looking forward to that also. If I feel like spending the cash tho I will keep VM as a backup and route it using windows so 2 connections to one pc again.

Got the Openreach data error preventing me from ordering fixed and placed my order this morning - speed estimate 60/20 on 300m line.

Well I dont really have any options and thankfully Virgin is actually OK for me at the moment. But it's quite funny that there are no plans to roll out infinity where I live actually think its a joke as its a quite densely populated area and there are much smaller exchanges that has a planned date or already have it enabled.

That said would be good to have options to get a good connection it is after all 2012 now ADSL1-2 are a joke these days...

Same.

They enabled an exchange in a town next to me that services 7,000 people... mine services 27,000... ridiculous.

Both same CPC, All i can come up with is they have a VMNG300, or different upstream.

different area of your area? bucklebs on the same channels as me but his monitor isn't as crazy as mine, same town.

He may also be on a VMNG300, that's the sort of flat lining of the avg latency i see now that i got my VMNG300 the other day, still, your average latency is pretty good compared to a lot of other people, infact, yours is quite far above a lot that ive seen.

You could try swapping upstreams, its possible the fluctuations in minimum latency are utilisation based.

It's been a bit crazy over the past couple of days, but as I wasn't at home I didn't notice :) there does seem to be something afoot in Crawley, and I'm hoping it's something good!

Upgraded from 60Mb to 100Mb on Monday and have seen no problems in usage at all, the connection as stable as it normall, apart from that TB fault the other day.

The VM network is very granular indeed at the local level. Any given set of channels only serves a couple of hundred or so homes which is rather fortunate as the total bandwidth available on 4down 1up is 200/18Mbps. As VM sell 100/10 unlimited on that it isn't hard to see that a single 100Mbps customer near to you going flat out can seriously spoil your day.
