Re: Anyone else experiencing slow internet?

Same here, 17:50 to 18:05 complete loss and since randomly can't connect to some websites

Went to the VX Status page, using another provider, and showed Broadband Good Service
What a joke this page is, every time I cannot connect, this shows Broadband Good Service

Therefore went and rebooted the modem, router, and computers
No difference, silly me

Just left with Windows Live Messenger unable to connect
No Default Gateway found

Obviously they have doubled the quality of everyones connection rather than the speed.

Looks like any address that people had cached before it all started falling to pieces is fine, DNS is down.

Strange as there now seems to be a improvement in my internet connection and speed.

Re: Anyone else experiencing slow internet?

For the last week or so the internet has been up and down, I'm in the PO8 area.
Today I've seen some pages not load and some of my IRC connections dropping. I just went to play MW3 and I cannot connect which is very annoying.

As for Virgin status, its all a load of trollop, last week online was reporting just TV on demand problems, the phone was saying there was an internet problem in the PO7 area (I'm po8 so its close enough) Not one mentioned that the TV service was down!
Who wants to trust virgin media status lines and pages when they are unreliable!

Re: Anyone else experiencing slow internet?

Can't connect at all on my virgin 100mb connection, the connection status page says access denied under dhcp lease and network access.

Switched to my sky bb to post here, i also can't access virginmedia's website.
