Oh dear, looks like my return to VM has been too soon,

Reconnected on Monday on 10Mb package, all fine Mon-Weds 9.7Mb/s download... Tonight, browsing is hell, 10% packet loss and download speeds peaking at 465kb/s....

Not STM'd as upload remains at 487kb/s (theres a first, I'm on UK cable and have a higher upload than download !)

According to status page my area has had 5 days worth of upgrades to increase capacity... ah well... maybe back to o2... Ã‚Â£8.50 p/m cheaper and sync at 5Mb/s with no STM.

I've given newsgroup support a nudge but as this problem has been ongoing since September 2007 I'm not holding much hope..

Makes the BT line install fee seem almost worth it !
