Connection Extremely Bad And Laggy At 4pm - 11pm (50 Mb) - Manchester Area
 
why does it go all laggy and bad at 4 - 11 pm?


Just Phoned Customer Service and it is a JOKE, they say they dont deal with Lwtency Issues as long as speed is fine, how am i supposed to play online games?


My Connection cuts out randomly sometimes and the CS guy says "no it dosent, i just checked, phone us back when it happens"


What kind of BS service is this


Where are the UK English Techs for 50 Mb gone?

And i am supposed to have £60 worth of credict because f all the problems, but guess what, never got a penny.

Ping is fine - trace route is fine.

Couple of other things.. how are you connected? Wifi, Ethernet.


Can you got to: http://192.168.100.1 root / root and provide the upstream & downstream power levels.

Where are the UK English Techs for 50 Mb gone?

And i am supposed to have £60 worth of credict because f all the problems, but guess what, never got a penny.

Which exchange are you on?

Also, what time are you calling VM? as the best time to call is between 10am and 3pm, I'm assuming you get put through to a foreign call centre, rather then UK based 50meg technical support?

I'm on the Salford exhange and I've had enough bad experience with 50meg, most of which, I've never posted on here.
