Re: 50Mb issues
Ive noticed on and off, online gaming has been a bit of a lottery for the last few weeks, the last time I complained on the newsgroups it was mentioned that the UBR I,m on had too many FEC errors and within a few days it was back to being great.

So last night I complained again via the same route so hopefully tonight when I check there might be an update.

As frustrating as it is, I,m not getting my knickers in a knot, because in 2 months my contract expires and if these issues aren't sorted by then, then I,m off regrettably.

One question I would like to ask anyone in the know is, are the issues various people are experiencing with their 50Mbps tier nationwide or typical of an area, or is it typically contention causing gaming traffic to suffer.

I would'nt mind staying with VM if normal decent service resumes but if this is to become the norm or in theory get worse as more people clamber onto the docsis 3 network.

I appreciate its a broad question but just looking for some light at the end of the tunnel.
