Ghostrider Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 ^^ Whatever it is, they're this || close to losing a customer, me! Getting a connection hasn't been so frustrating today, but yesterday and today they seem to have settled in to a pattern of everything suddenly falling apart round 8-9pm with multiple line drops, and steadily decreasing line speed at reconnecting the later in to the night it gets. I'm on a 4.7 meg one right now, but if its a re-run of last night, it'll be an under 2 meg by 4am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarotangel Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 Over the last week had lots of problems with the internet connection dropping but wasn't sure if it was just us. We're with Pipex, well Tiscali now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unlinkedstudent Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 Did anyone else lose their broadband connection during the early hours of this morning until about 8am? (***Mod Edit - Topic merged with existing one***) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unlinkedstudent Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 nerds, porn aficionado's and people who like World Of Warcraft must have been proper gutted! Those apart, I'm actually self-employed and have been known to receive work at the craziest of hours. I rely heavily on broadband for work. Needless to say, my BT Business Account Manager will stroll into work tomorrow morning to find a suitably worded e-mail in his Inbox. I'm beginning to wonder if BT are in cahoots re the windfarm proposal - perhaps it would be cheaper to run a line with the power cable as opposed to renting "space" off the existing high speed line? Or is it just a conspiracy so that anyone in Shetland cannot communicate with the outside world? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAStewart Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 I think its just another thing we have to put up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArabiaTerra Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 Not a connection problem this time, unlinked. My broadband (TalkTalk) was on all night and happily downloading away, no interruptions. In fact, there was a speed increase around 7am for an hour or so. Maybe that was all you BT people being kicked off the net, leaving more bandwidth for the rest of us? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unlinkedstudent Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 Ooh and to think I left Talktalk; well, be interesting to learn of BT's response tomorrow then if it wasn't connection problems. Perhaps their servers were copying Talktalk's - I bet you remember their e-mail servers being down for a week not long ago? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It means if I change from talktalk to someone else, I don't have to go through all the hassle of updating e-mail addresses with everything I've signed up for. Mind you, I've been getting dropped connections tonight, twice so far in about 2 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinner72 Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 No probs with BT here, current connection time over 6 days. Did have some hassle with dropped connections a while back but getting the line profile reset cured it and has been running 300kBps plus since.
