This time last month it was regularly like this:
i was talking about ur BT one as i think he was on about the red drops on the graph there.

Yours is fine Neo-Tech. A little difference at peak times is to be expected really. Graphs that are virtually flat all the time are the exception rather than the rule on VM due to cable being so much more sensitive to load.

There needs to be some expectation management. When doing these graphs the key thing has to be, always, how they are affecting the connection in actual use.
i remember when VM brought in the Traffic management first of all and they were doing "Expectation Management" apparently lol

I remember i came home one monday after being in London with my ex for 3 days and i turned PC on and modem which had been off all that time and my connection was very very slow. I rang Virgin and this is the Gods Honest Truth i was told that "Because my modem was off for so long sometimes management kicks in on the modem because they expect the user to perform large downloads which could affect the network".

At the time i was living in a place called Brynmill in Swansea which is a high student area which around every 9 months would become oversubscribed and they would take then around 3-6 months to sort it.
