Re: BT at it again

it all depends on the quality and distance from the exchange to your house. the ISP has no say/effect on it beyond what 'package' you are signed up to, they could sell you a 200M package but if your lines crap you will get what it can handle

Re: BT at it again

The service is back to normal-ish today (Monday). But I think that three days with intermittant service or no service at all and neither explanation nor apology is pretty apalling.

Someone sensible about speed.
It does not make much difference to most people what speed they are on once you get to about the 1mb or probably even less in reality IMHO. You only notice the speed when you start downloading stuff. If you just send mail and read forums and do a bit of googling for info I don't think it matters much if you get 1mb or 8mb.

Re: BT at it again

My internet has gone down twice in the past 2 nights. Monday night about 11.30pm and last night about 8.30pm. It's come back on at about 7.15am the morning after on both occasions. Possibly doing some work at the exchange ?
