Re: What else could it be?

ive now been told.....

I've mailed the area service manager directly to request a joint appointment
by his senior technician and one of the local network engineers to
investigate this matter further. We've referred the issue up to our Network
management centre who are unable to find any issues on the UBR so it must be
the physical network. As soon as we have any reply we'll be back in touch.

I have also informed head office, retensions and tech support that end of october is the cut off point.

If its not fixed then then all my services will go elsewhere.

Re: What else could it be?

are you sure the engineer didn't go out? he may have plugged you into a different tap port to resolve the problem

Re: What else could it be?

The huge thread in virginmedia.support.broadband.cable is quite entertaining too.

One small request, you think you could stop pasting the same logs of loss of downstream sync into the thread, makes it hard to read the to-and-fro comments and I'm sure they get the idea now.

Other than that thank you, it's like watching a Watchdog story in real time

Sorry, it's too amusing not to read, it's almost like Virgin Media's version of Eastenders

Between your setting deadlines, threatening to leave, engineer no-shows, tech support kissing your arse, etc, it's pure class. Frustrating as it is I'm sure for you it's a damn good read

Re: What else could it be?

Right ive been given a TEST! 50mb modem to use for a few days so they can get more stats from my line.

Downloaded a file from VM Game files and it hit 5.6mb/s before falling back and averaging around 4.5mb.

If people don't start being a little more respectful of other peoples' levels of knowledge this thread will get locked and infractions dished out.
