Title: Worse and worse
Post by: Ann on Oct 06, 2008, 01:16:05
They tell me it's congestion at the exchange.. everyone and his dog must be downloading stuff during the night.. it's never been this bad..

Your DSL connection rate: 7616 kbps(DOWN-STREAM),  448 kbps(UP-STREAM)
    IP profile for your line is - 6500 kbps
    Actual IP throughput achieved during the test was - 642 kbps

Ho hum..

I'm not convinced that exchange congestion would have that kind of impact. You'll need to get on to IDNet about this, Ann.

After a couple of days of that, it's back to normal this morning.  Wonder if BT were fiddling.  Will check tonight and see what happens.

We had o2/Be installed at the exchange two months ago and already they are not taking new customers as they say they are congested.  So it looks as if my area is awash with internet customers.
