Kinda funny but, its back but not as bad as before.
Current symptoms
1. all downloads seem to drop and restart after 40 or seconds, http and ftp
2. online games dont disconnect me, but sporadic spikes occur, (no data , then all of a sudden everything on screen goes crazy till it settles (as it dosnt d/c me i have abused these spikes
)
3. Very often web pages refuse to load depsite page refreshes, then for a few mins its ok , then back to a "waiting for website blah blah blah msg"
4. If i try a different web proxy I get no connection at all. (is there some sort of auto block on specifying other proxies?)
5. Certain sites seem to have given up alltogether, i.e geocities hosted, and a few cd burning related sites like afterdawn and cdfreaks ( is this a filter?)
6. Streaming media never plays smoothly, even on 128kbps settings, (i have 750 kbps) to many reconnects to make it worth watching
all the time, cable modem connection light stays on, and the data light seems to flash a hell of alot.
Yes I have virus and adware scanned, all clean
Yes all Windows updates are applied.
And yes same setup that works fine, 60% of the time, then gets these rather annoying service problems.
And No ,not called cs yet, I was kinda hoping it would resolve automagically as before.
