I'm having the exact same issues as XevilX. I'm in the Belfast region on 512, and I can't work out whether I've been 'upgraded' or not as the speedtest at http://www.dslzoneuk.net/speedtest.php gives me a speed of 85.8 kbps

All upgraded from 1meg to 1.5 here in Bromley Kent...about 3am this morning with no need for a reboot by me

im from belfast to and we do have the upgrade 1.5mb this morning and downloading at 3kb tonight belfast is never without a problem

DieDieMyDarling · 02-08-2004, 23:20

I'm in Belfast too. Got the upgrade this morning, then this afternoon things went pear shaped. It's the Belfast cache, i turned on my proxies and all is good. I too was getting about 3kb (sometimes even 0.7k!). Try a proxy for a different area, you'll notice a big difference.

XEviLX · 02-08-2004, 23:26

cant wait to the morning to chew the balls of them they dont even report anything on the service status page if they are not going to post problems what is it there for

DieDieMyDarling · 02-08-2004, 23:29

If they were to post all the problems all of the time, they'd have a status page that was 1000 pages long. The email is still playing up, newsgroups still hit and miss (mostly miss), etc, etc, etc. But at least we have faster speeds now.

jtwn · 02-08-2004, 23:40

Whats happened to the 150k people being done? Some in my area havent been, is it just 600/1meg being done at the moment?
