I apologise for my signature, please don't any VM staff on the forum take it to heart, it's nothing personal! :)

whats wrong with the sig, looks fine to me :D

glad you getting the message out that its wrong for VM to be pushing out and upgrading areas for 100mbit etc. and have other areas needing work to even supply what they selling.

I was actually referring to http://onewayinternet.blogspot.com/2...k-thought.html - I put a more complete post on afterwards.

Badly. The TBB monitor tells you what you need to know. Warped like a female dog, lagged like a prostitute.

Remembering I live in Twickenham without the rugby to keep the load down it sucks.

I'm feeling quite F'd in the A at the moment. As noted above gaming is an exercise in futility for now.

I am sorry for your loss, you have been here with VM before though. As you can see, they haven't changed.

I had no issues at all with them though until October.

Oh don't be. I'm expecting a call from the CEO's office tomorrow to confirm how my install went. After VM's errors delaying the install by a month I managed to get them to step in and expedite things slightly. :D

"Yep it's all great apart from that the broadband is appalling, the Superhub needed 6 reboots yesterday and the VoD doesn't work properly. Phone line and linear TV fabulous though - those bits that purely by coincidence don't rely on the network's return path..."

Well you shouldn't feel that bad after all your only paying a fraction of what you should be for such a service :D:D:D

and by coincidence that's what the cables were originally intended for.

Mmmm not really, I wouldn't say I'm paying a fraction of what I should for 10Mbit out of 50Mbit.

Yes that's true, it's not like Telewest have ever done any upgrade beyond node splits on this area and even those the majority were done by VM, they've just shoved more and more down, and up, the cables.
