Joined when Telewest.
Ambit 256 modem.

Speeds have been truly terrible with speedtest reporting 0.59mbps download but 1.57mbps upload. Tried the usual rebooting and the like with no joy although for a little while yesterday there was a small improvement.

Ignore. Seems it was the start of a more serious fault as my modem won't complete a reboot and I'm stuck with a Mobile internet service until the engineer sorts it out.
