ArabiaTerra Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 Ping = 58ms That's better than I've ever got! (But then, I don't play online games, so it doesn't really matter) http://www.speedtest.net/result/539095855.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewenutz Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 http://www.speedtest.net/result/539292007.png Pipex gets no better, speeds have been dreadfull lately. And they say that my IP has been blocked for some reason, so i can't access my yahoo email, just get an error 999 everytime. The only help they've given me is telling me not to use my email for a few days and see if it fixes it self. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostrider Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 I'm with Tiscali, I signed up with them before they took over Pipex....They were intended to be a short term stopgap option to keep me online after Orange swallowed Freeserve......I had been taking a look at Pipex as someone to go with as a permanent replacement, and first I knew Tiscali ate them too....Typical! The wiring around here probably doesn't help me either, but even allowing for that, the connection speed and line speed has been all over the place since last December.

Fjool Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 I dropped Pipex as soon as my obligatory year was up. Since then my connection has been faster and my bill smaller. Plus I got a decent wireless router and internet phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinner72 Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 I'm on holiday in Stornoway just now so thought I'd see what results this apparently blazing connection gave : http://www.speedtest.net/result/539438276.png Weird! Other than the ping thats pretty much what I get back in Shetland, however there is no question that this connection is faster in "real life" usage. (streaming video being the most obvious example). Both on BT option 3 too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus I got a decent wireless router and internet phone. Is it BT you're with? I've been with Pipex since 2004, but I'm gonna be moving home soon and need to decide on a new ISP, BT certainally look like the best bet so far with their unlimited option. Mine is slightly better now late at night http://www.speedtest.net/result/539505905.png Really does just depend though, download speeds are jumping, anything from 20kbps to 400kbps, seems to fluctuate an awful lot.

splodger Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 Finally I think my broadband is working again!!!!! Getting speeds over 6mb downloads, bit sporadic and BT vision isn't working yet but looks like they've finally sorted the problem out, hallelujah! Hope every1 else in Sandwick area is up and running at a good speed again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvin Posted August 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 My broadband wasn't working last night (25th). Phoned BT and they said the exchange (Bixter) was down. It was still off this morning. Did anybody else have any problems last night.... it would be good to know if any other exchanges were down Cheers Marvin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
