How about using the Gaming area?

In the past (months ago) there were two national outages following changes in down and up channels when we went from 4 to 5 to 8 down and up to 2 up.
As a casual observation it does look as though changes in user configuration causes major network problems and hopefully these bumps are a short term deliberate effect until something can be sorted out. There will be all hell to pay if they become a regular feature because mass complaints will be evident if we all suffer prime time useless service.
I did not really notice the reduction in what was an excellent service because over the past few weeks I have been using BT Infinity for most of my internet work.

That is one hell of a good connection you have there for VM.

Jayster,
In the many months before October the connection used to be brilliant. Hopefully it will be again  , after the problems are resolved.
I used to be one of VM's harshest critics but if they provide quality at the right price even an old cynic like me will change opinion.
PRE OCTOBER.....

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
I have registered an issue at http://community.virginmedia.com/t5/...p/td-p/1502644
Perhaps we can all do this if affected. VM techies etc may then sit up and take notice.

Just spotted another thread here. http://community.virginmedia.com/t5/...t/false/page/7

Smeg.
They time shifted the system to 9PM to see if there was a different load effect....
Edit 2 = Its not as bad ping wise. but Ive lost 1/3 of my download. (33% for the young ones on here, So have been downgraded to 20Mb/s service...)
Edit 3 = just over an hour this time.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
The bump started later tonight and appears to be lasting a shorter period of time.

What does worry me is there has been no response from VM over this at all.
