rang up pipex and asked why my download has fallen:

Reply:There is nothing wrong with the connection if the sync rate falls below 4172 then bt will check the line otherwise there is nothing we can do

the download speed is 1900kbps below 4172kbps you

Maybe your local exchange is just a bit congested at the minute, other than that it sounds like either an overloaded central or traffic shaping.

 

[deathwish]

the exchange isn't congested

and we have never had traffic shaping before pipex and have had no notice from pipex that they have applied it so if they have added it its breaking the contract

AND lowered the price, we've gone from 2mbps @ 23.44 a month, to 8mbps at 19.99 a month!!

amen!

ur lucky man......

my speed SUX atm......

this is the best its been in the last coupla days........i was down to 100kbps....

nildram say everything is "fine"

ive had 2 BT engineers out, both say my line can support at least 6mbps with NO hassles.

ive got my router in my master socket......the works.

they expect me to waste a whole day doing speed tests, pings, traceroutes.........THEN they want me to wait 72 hours for my profile to reset, THEN they can contact BT which will take 48 hours apparantly.

f*** this, this is the 4th time its happened.

screw this, tomorrow im going with BT. Best people for problem solving.

i am going to go idnet

 

[FarFarAway]

Good idea

I was having a problem last week.

Rang Andrew at IDNET, he did some tests and confirmed my line had been going down periodically. After asking me if I had swapped out router and checked hardware etc (and believing me when I said I had) he got BT on the case. A couple of days later and after resetting a few things (line speed then SNR margin) it is stable again.

Now THAT is service

pipex were trying to tell me that my line was ment to run at the fault threshold WTF

its way below the fault threshold and they still are saying "nope nothings wrong with your conection :nono: " :banghead:
