Yeah was thinking this connection is a bit quick tonight, what we should do is a keep a log of the nights when the speed is good instead of poor as it would be very long. I have told BT when the speeds are good but it slides from one ear canal to the other!!
Mine hasn't dropped below 5000 all evening so far. I thought it may be something to do with an email I sent them last night - but obviously not as the improvement seems widespread.
Thank your lucky stars my router says the downstream rate is 5120 Kbps but the max speed I get is 30kb/s and the speedtest shows the downstream as a pathetic 188.23 Kbps.
Even the upload rate is faster on the router says it says 448Kbps but is actually 360.51 Kbps which is almost double the downstream speed.
Yes but not to the extent that its really widespread as all IP-Stream ISP's would be affected by exchange based congestion. As for it affecting other exchanges not a chance, exchange congestion is really the typical ISP response when they cant think of anything else to say.
