has gone on a go slow.
anyone else getting slow loading sites?
Sorry Paul on the MiFi
seems to be .com's taking ages or timesout
Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to www.foxnews.com
Try reloading: www. foxnews. com
Yep... mine just sets there...
I can get through on Three with mobile Safari
Yes, quite a few things are taking a while to load on my end too, even got booted off Quakenet IRC.
Any site that has google analytics (google-analytics.com) is taking ages to load aswell.
EVERY site is slow for me, bar www.idnet.net and www.idnetters.co.uk
ODD? I mean, slower than dial-up slow.
Yes same slowness here.. although it's completely random as to which sites (or domain suffixes) are loading/not loading. I'm not using IDNET's DNS servers either.. (OpenDNS).
IDnet have reported a problem to BT, They say it seems to be a bandwidth/traffic issue.
Oh dear!
Linx is causing issues.
Xylo report this :
QuoteLINX Routing Issues
Our monitoring has picked up some high latency and packet loss. This appears to be related to a problem at Linx.
We are investigating currently but only appears to be affecting the 224 peering LAN.
Started at: 1:26pm, 21st July 2010
Resolve ETA: No ETA
Quote2010-07-21 14:28: We are currently investigating a very high number of reports of extremely slow speeds.
We are in contact with BT's network incidents team to try and identify the cause of the problem.
Updates to follow shortly.
From the status page.
You might want to change the subject of this post Steve so its more clear for other people as its nothing to do with my connection :)
It is affecting multiple ISP's, next doors Orange BB is down to dial up too.
faster now.. but not usual speed.
Oh....
I wish I'd checked this forum. I've just spent half hour on the phone to IDNet complaining about my slow internet. They said there are no problems. Clearly this thread changes that.

I like to give challenges ;D
I get random bursts of speed and then back to slowness. Think I'll just go out and enjoy the sunshine and wait for this to fix itself lol. ;D

Zen have it too so may as well wait it out.
Just come online a half hour ago and its like being stuck in treacle. Good job its a rest day in the Tour de France, can't have any slowdowns tomorrow with the most important stage of the race taking place.
Well here's a step into the twilight zone, during the outage my connection's gained wings.
Connection Speed 8128 kbps 448 kbps
Line Attenuation 29.0 db 17.0 db
Noise Margin 4.5 db 25 db

Up until now, unless there's a problem, my connection delivers 6.32 MB/s without fail, at peak or off peak. It might deviate by as much as 0.01 (seriously) but it's been that stable since this line was installed. So where's the extra half megabyte come from and is this an early warning sign of impending doom?
I had this as well and stupidly started a new thread, seems ok now, well not as nippy as it usually is but a lot better
Further update http://www.idnetters.co.uk/forums/index.php?topic=21284.msg509936#msg509936
Zen also confirm the LINX issue as resolved.
Noticed it at work this afternoon myself too.
A mangled port upgrade caused an outage at Linx yesterday.
A spokesman for Linx (the London Internet Exchange) said a routine port upgrade introduced a problem which caused processor usage in a router to surge, leading to instability on one of its LANs.

Don't you just love the testing they do... :shake:
No redundancy either
There will be soon. ;)
They should do these things late at night.
It costs more, I guess.
They supposedly have a dual vendor, dual LAN topology and encourage members to take at least a port on each to provide redundancy apparently.

Well thats the theory anyway.
Great theory... ;)
Still unusable for me, I browse pages fairly well but gaming/downloading watching videos just aint happening.

Might be better running a tracert (traceroute) that IP to see what route it is taking.
Put it up and we'll have a look.
My internet is really slow as well, I usually get about 6MB pretty constantly but the last few days it has all over the place. Down to just under 3MB at the moment. I was going to call idnet but it seems that they already know about it. Any idea when this is likely to be fixed?
Not sure Pud with to regard 'fixing' do you know of a specific fault?
Having the same problem again at the mo.. some sites load fast and others dont :(
I had no internet from about 11pm last night until this morning, but my internet is so screwed that it might not be related.
Have you let support know?
