ok the previous problem i had with an exchange in leeds causing me some issues with reaching sites fixed itself. which is grand.

last night. around 8pm i noticed my interwebs were very very unresponsive. some pages timing out. some pages just taking an age to display. so following someones advice on these boards to a previous problem.

i downloaded a game demo from the VM demo's list. a single file download came down at 300kb not good for a 20mb connection. if i started a second download. this also would average out to 300kb . 2 hours to download a 1 gig file :/

i decided that i would allow it some time and so here i am.

its 3.30AM !! i just ran a speed test

well i ran a few from diffrent sites but all report the same. not only do they show my internet is crippled but they take around 4 minutes to complete whereas they are usually over in a few seconds. i watch the up and downstream lights on my modem and its as if they only activate intermittently. like i download a small chunk one second. then theres a 3 second pause. then it downloads another chunk....... etc
kinda hard to explain sorry.

last thing i wanted to check out was the modem configuration page i was also linked to previously. 192.168.100.1 .

i can not open this page to see anything. i just get a message saying gateway timed out. every time ( iv tried it like 20 times)

so yea. it's late . im tired but alert. i shall be going back to bed shortly but would like to know if people have any suggestions, i will be rining vm if this continues but my last call was unpleasant . i was left in a queue for 35 minutes only to be hung up on twice !!. so im really hoping someone here can suggest something .

thanks.
