If infinity lets you order then Sky might be able to do it over the phone/manually.

I did try to ring, they couldnt even give me any kind of estimated date.

Time will tell if I regret my decision.

There was a significant delay from our exchange being done to Sky actually being able to offer anything - the Sky rep said something about not having the licenses yet?

Only conceivable reason I can think of for that is if you P2P heavily.

very occasionally and even then its download only.

legal content only. Things like cyanogen mod android rom which is distributed via p2p and certian freeware apps.

As long as BT dont treat unclassified as p2p or have false positives the shaping shouldnt cause me issues.

North Bristol, my 30Mb has been rock solid for several weeks but has started to get the evening-bump again.

I'm new to these forums, in fact, I only really joined after seeing this thread!

Had a technician come round tonight after constant packet loss (see below)
[img]Download Failed (1)[/img]

He's literally only just left, but I showed him the state of this graph and he said he didn't understand what could be causing it... Will see how it is now he's left and altered my power levels.

heavy downstream load and a bit of upstream/lack of capacity on the network that can handle the load. whats the ETA you get from VMs speed doubles site for your area?

If this is aimed at me... We've had ours doubled from 30mb to 60mb already (TS18). It's been doubled for a couple of months now, right about when I started having issues funnily enough :dozey:

yeah it was aimed at you buddy.

TS18 - Your speed upgrade is going
to take a little longer. We estimate your area will be ready between: May 2013 and August 2013. Our engineers are still working on the fibre optic network in your area.

the local network will get its capacity upgrade closer to the completion ETA above.

have you looked at BT or Sky fibre? go on BTs site and check what estimates it gives you for fibre.

btw did you power down then up the SH around 6pm? it looks like it found a new channel or the down/uploaders went offline or both or sorted itself out

Wow, seriously? I assumed it'd doubled already with me not having a price increase other than that in April (unless that was a crafty way of covering the upgrades?)

We've looked into BT infinity but it's not available in our area. I haven't checked sky fibre though, I doubt they will be available either :(

------

A technician came out at 6, we've been having issues for months, emails flying backwards and forwards from the ceo office, PTs coming out to check things etc... He left about half an hour ago.

My graphs always look good after they've been. A few days later they go back to their yellow spiky messy self!
