ok so web pages are loading as fast as a 3 legged elephant going up a steap hill, icq kicks me out every 2-3 mins.

changed to ethernet since the last time and peak times are just as bad.

is it worth ringing ts? what the hell is the point of paying nearly ÃƒÆ’Ã†â€™ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã…Â¡ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£40/month for this crap service?????

I think a shout to TS is called for

I can agree with this post; my service is behaving rather weirdly...

The overall speed is reportedly fine but some websites seem to be utterly terrible and just vanish. I checked on my ntl dialup account and all is fine.

Here's an example trace route:

What gets me is how its been varying over the last few days. I think I will be forced to call TS tomorrow. It was one of those problems that I hoped would cure itself

sorry to hijack your thread, I was asked to post tracerts in the 'I'mOff' thread but it doesnt appear on the latest thread bit so here's my comparison to your link.

the 600+ pings on your traces even within the ntl network are just too much!

If your own ISP lets you down like that you are on a hiding to nothing!

Try www.f2s.com for adsl that rocks

My connection was acting wierd last night I couldn't download of a friends pc the speed on my 1mb was so slow we gave up. Not even 1kb and I uploaded a file to him a little later should have only taken a few mins yet it took 13min 12 secs..
First thing in the morning Mirc, msn Icq Yahoo all worked but I couldn't load a webpage...

iadom · 25-02-2004, 22:27

I needed to download a 5.60MB file from my AV supplier this morning. I cancelled the first attempt when the dialogue box reported downloading at 1.94KB/sec

and estimated time of 1hr. 43 mins. A check on RDHW speed test was perfect ( on 600kBB) I tried again later and it still took 30 mins to download.
