Just reboot your hub to get extra upload speed!

i rebooted mine the other day finally got it since then my service has been terrible been at this address 5 years thought been with virgin since the Yorkshire cable days always had the top package at the time at both addresses always had max speed both up and down 24/7,

since the reboot with the new config ive never seen past 40 up and my download speeds are anywhere from 200-500 where as before was getting constant 1150/52 think a phone call is in order but i totally CBA with the hold for hours at a time and script monkeys lol,

just found out this week ms3networks are installing on my street and hope to be completed by august think after being a VM customer right from 1995 YC days might finally be the time the move on

Leicester, there is other reports from the city (and county) as well.

Be interesting to see if Philce got it.

If there is concerns with capacity I actually do prefer they dont do it for what its worth, since I use upstream QoS, if it e.g. varied from 70-100 I would be shaping down to the 60s round the clock anyway and would risk regression on other metrics of the connection. I did have visible upstream congestion up until they added the 3.1 US channel. (with 50mbit upload config)

Yeah that looks rough. I am guessing despite the improvements, the Leicester network is still in a poor state compared to the rest of the country.

Luckily mine is still very good in terms of peak vs off peak, but my noise increases seem to be getting worse.

I checked my graph after looking at yours, and another outage (packet loss spike) at just before 4pm, whats in the log?

This

26-05-2023 15:53:43 critical No Ranging Response received - T3 time-out;CM-MAC=xx;CMTS-MAC=xx;CM-QOS=1.1;CM-VER=3.1;
26-05-2023 15:53:41 critical 16 consecutive T3 timeouts while trying to range on upstream channel 0;CM-MAC=xx;CMTS-MAC=xx;CM-QOS=1.1;CM-VER=3.1;

My 3.0 upstream's have been spending most of the time on QAM32 (modulation downgrade due to noise), and now they are logging large amounts of T3s as well.

I reported this to VM a few weeks back and its "within spec" so all good I guess.

However the drop's are not frequently visible on TBB, and I have only had one drop whilst doing stuff interactively, given my performance is still at max speeds, I have left it alone, would feel a bit silly having a big rant on the phone when the problem is largely not affecting me real world.
