Yes, LU2 here also and been having major problems for about 3 weeks.

This did initially coincide with me having a weekend away, turning everything off entirely for the duration. When I returned I noticed connectivity was a bit iffy and bandwidth significantly reduced (especially downstream; upstream seemed okay). I'd not worried overly about it though, just expected it to return to normal eventually.

Lately (the last week or so) browsing has become more miss than hit and the internet in general is completely unusable in the evenings. Mornings are better but still crap compared to what they should be.

Spent 20 minutes listening to classical music on 150 last night before giving up. I'll try the "Thinking of leaving VM" option before 8pm tonight.

Reading around other forums, it does seem VM are having major problems nationally. I'm not sure how much longer they'll be able to keep this out of the news if it continues.
