Wobbly this morning, but nothing listed as scheduled work on the one remaining service status link...ok now.

Either way, it could still compromise download speeds. Try downloading from within the virgin network and see what you get.

My speeds in Guildford are rubbish today and it appears that 20Meg is currently worse than the old 10Meg it replaced.

All services died last night at 11.20 which was both internet and V+ digital TV. It was not a CATV outage as the TV analogue bypass still worked.

Re: Shockingly Low Speeds Today...
 

Give it a few days and I imagine speeds will be back to normal. (hopefully)

Re: Shockingly Low Speeds Today...

If you're on 2mbps, yes. If you're on 4mbps, or 10mbps, no :)
