post it up on the VM forum. whats the double ETA you get from bolt?

try rebooting the SH and router (if you have one). wait 30seconds to 1 minutes in between off and on. it may not make a difference or it might putting you on another upstream channel.

Yeah - but people read and interpret your words - thousands of posts and lots of big stars.

It's a huge statement to make that it's VM's network at fault (even if you're right). That's a huge estate and it's not happened to me at any time other than a few months ago when they were upgrading my area and squeezing me onto a swing UBR.

I think that these sort of sweeping statements (other than how crud the SH is in router mode) should be avoided unless they can be substantiated.

yes sorry. what i meant in my head wasnt typed out in full.

lucky you Seph. ive noticed a fair few play up since the route work annoucement. im guessing it must be widespread across the network if its happening in different parts of the country? or it could be anything else. i have no proof. just guessing.

Ah - but if you're guessing, that needs to be stated because people with a high post count and a lot of stars are taken seriously by the peops with problems seeking our advice.

ok. my guess its got to do with route work VM done. what do you think it is?

Sephiroth · 04-01-2013, 22:36

We are considering Snoopz' almost unique set of TBBs presented in http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/35...-post3098.html

Because it's somewhat unique and varied in itself, I wouldn't even attempt a guess. Indeed, I didn't!

His data needs to be posted on the VM forum where there is a path for some of us to badger people who might actually be able to say what was happening in Snoopz' area.

It helps if people posting their TBBs also say what's happening to their real stuff, particularly live streaming. Correlation helps to reduce uncertainty. I also ask peops what their upstream is doing, although the slope in one of Snoopz' TBBs is beginning to look like what Rashboots posted in http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/35...-post3038.html

But we haven't heard from Rashboots (Teesside) as to what it was all about ....

Good to hear it thenry, long may it last

Mines the best it's been in months since they finished the upgrades in my area, not that Ive got my speed upgrade yet - every time I phone up I get called Mrs so and so despite obviously being Mr so and so, one time the indian guy even gave himself the same first name as me and still called me Mrs

Its been more like this :

Apparently there's still an issue in my area (Since early October) but things have got sooooo much better.

It's uploading at 19Mbps (online backup). If I enable QOS and prioritise ICMP it would look a lot better but, browsing, streaming and gaming works fine so there's not much point.

Been going since thursday night doing just under 8GB/Hour and is due to finish in about 12 hours. Here are the stats for today and the last 24 hours..

Chrysalis, your poor VM connection, is it sat in the corner feeling ashamed of itself hehe.
My FTTC line looks like yours when it's idle but with less blue and yellow, I've not seen a thickish blue line like that before on anyones FTTC line. Do you know why it's like that?
