Well I am not a happy bunny. This broadband malarkey is really hit and miss. When I connected yesterday morning it was great. Much faster than dial up and easy to connect, or so I thought.

I got home from work last night, tried to connect and kept getting an error message that the remote computer was not responding in a timely manner. Frustrated after several attempts, I finally connected on dial up.

Connected on broadband again this morning with no problems. I have just tried to connect again now and received the same error message, once again I am here on dial up.

The folks at Wanadoo rang the other night to see how the broadband was going. As I had only just received my connection I hadn't had chance to check it out. They said that they would ring back in a couple of days and God help them when they do. I will be tearing a strip off someone and asking for my bill to be reduced if I am unable to connect efficiently each time I try.

I really hate it when these large corporations promote that their product is the dog's bollocks, only to find that it is mediocre tat...
 
It happens on BT Yahoo too.
Try logging on a few times; if it doesn't respond, then restart your computer and try again.
I realise we shouldn't be having to do this but it is usually a way round the problem for me.
 
Not gloatin' honest! When it works it's good. l also have my dial-up ready cos l'm never that trustful!
See you Sunday. xxx
 
i musn't gloat but im on b/t & have been for the past 2 yrs, yes it costs me more. i also was speaking to cashman to-day & it does the same to him does wannadoo. it also throws him out of the chatroom a lot.
 
lettie if you have a extention lead on the phone line this can be a problem as it will couse signal loss
 
Wanadoo broadband....mmmm..... I know lots of people that have a problem with that. I'm on BT Broadband and I have to say it is good. We had a few problems with it at first but when we rang them they told us how to correct the problem and they were very helpful. Good luck on getting it up and running.
