Re: Slow speeds in Burnley on 2mb?

I have been experiencing intermittent problems too. From here, we route through Baguley. It's been happening for a week or two now - since the 10Mbps upgrade? A couple of nights ago eBay froze on me for nearly a minute and I missed placing a bid. I'm starting to get irritated with it now.

Slow speed on 2Mb for me (in Glasgow) over the past week or so - rebooting the modem clears it up.

Hi (sorry off topic)

I am still on a pace STB, 1MEG no problems at all for me regarding speed at all. I wonder if they can throttle your connection now.

Re: Slow speeds in Burnley on 2mb?

I seem to remember that nothing ever comes back after v900 (or v902 in your case). Here's some from me. I don't think they are bad but some of the routing is strange - Baguley, Manchester, Leeds, Poplar, Leeds!

As I'm constructing this reply I'm apparently also suffering from packet loss. Cableforum keeps going quiet on me.
