IDnet problems

Anyone else found their IDnet connections at a crawl today?

I can't get more than 16K/s out of my IDnet ADSLMax line - normally 160K/s !

All good here. Quite possibly a problem at your exchange. May be worth contacting IDNet

Idnet FTW! Seriously, I havn't had any outages as of yet and am well impressed with the reliability and speed I've been getting so far

Good old Mirriam at IDnet is kicking BT for me. Their speed test came back:

Quote:

Test1 comprises of Best Effort Test:

IP profile for your line is - 135 kbps

DSL connection rate: 448 kbps(UP-STREAM) 6048 kbps(DOWN-STREAM)

Actual IP throughput achieved during the test was - 100 kbps

Ouch, bet that feels like the old days of 56k

Yup - I can actually SEE web pages building up down the screen, and not flash-based multimedia sites either, plain html text

Maybe you can tell us how long the OC3D homepage takes to load over 56k

Yay - Miriam @ IDNet set me straight. It was a problem with BT who had locked my line down to minimum speed. Apparently it's not that rare

with BT...
