Can anyone explain this? My Broadband Ping

I Restarted my superhub yesterday, and afterwards, the graph was alot more stable...

Still sub par speeds in the evenings, and unable to stream video though.

Heres a look at my actual speeds over the past 24 hours:

Just to update. I've had BT Infinity installed, and the results compared to Virgin, are like night and day. Heres my new BQM:

The link shows a blank BQM. Not active, as if it was just a question of enabling Pings it would show all red.

Anyway, on BT Infinity you can't have a static IP address, (you can on Business Infinity), so every time your IP address changes you will lose the BQM. And some other poor sod who gets the previous IP address will wonder what is going on.

If you don't reboot the router, (and don't have a power cut) the IP stays the same for weeks.

I have a BQM running without worry smile

He doesn't seem to have anything there though. Neither the (old?) link in his sig nor the specific link in the post.

I've seen a BQM for an IP that didn't respond do the same, show complete black. The IP was apparently not active on the router until the DHCP server had issued it the first time. (always same IP assigned to an account). (BE new network).

Hi, I've found my cabinet no is 27 (near bridgefoot/workington cumbria)

Is there a way to find out where it is, apart from hiring a 4x4 and following the poles?
regards, Phil
