All is well in G73 area of Glasgow. Full access to Google, Gmail and BBC and other sites that I couldn't access before.

Re: Connection to BBC/Google etc?
Better this morning, but USA bandwidth seems awful through the proxies (ok on NNTP) - but then I guess I should be used to that

I wonder if they'll own up to the reason...

Re: Connection to BBC/Google etc?
Had loads of problems last night. I was in the middle of downloading and my connection droped. I rang tech support and reached India again, I said my connection is having problems geting connected.

He then told to type in some command in Command prompt, It was somthing like *Winsck clear* or somthing. Did that, Solved the problem.

Then the next day my connection went down yet again, I rang tech support again and got to India again, They said there was problems in the Nottingham area and wont be solved for another week. WTH a week? My dad rang about a refund on time etc and asked why it was down in the first place. A nice helpful indian women said there wasn't any problems in my area and it was my cable modem and booked an engineer.

The engineer is coming this afternoon, Finaly my problems with packet loss / droped connections might be solved today! YAY!

Wish me luck ha!

erm... why is there no mention of this on the service status page. As a Nottingham customer I am not happy

That's it - BT, here I come (and not a moment too soon)
