At 10 am my ping reduced and I started getting congestion again ? Has anyone else got this ?

Well spotted Paul it is evident on all the IDNet TBBQMs in terms of an increase in maximum latency. Minimum latency is showing a small abrupt change at that time in both directions. The one non IDNet line that I can see shows no change whatsoever.
One of our Gigabit circuits from BT carying broadband services has failed. Services are correctly failing
over to the other circuit and we have raised the fault with BT.

That explains the extra congestion then as everyone is on one pipe ???
I don't normally check the service status page as it hardly gets updated ;D
Thanks Bill. :thumb:
Only had a slight effect on my IPv4 connection (brief red spike and marginal drop in latency), but the congestion really shows up on the IPv6 one:

According to the router log it happened at 09:59:01, near enough 10am so I (correctly, as it happened) blamed BT ;D
Mine happened at 9:57am..

Currently chatting with support as they haven't had any reports of congestion / packet loss since it happened.
Several some things. Seems to be network related. I'm working from home and at one point I was able to browse to a site using my remote machine that I couldn't get to from here. My TBBQM shows a couple of drops although I've logged onto my modem and it says it's been up since Monday morning when I know there was a re-sync.

Damn. Just lost the VPN connection now.
Edit: Yah latency is a bit naff as well. Thought earlier that was just me working RDC harder than normal.
Edit 2: Can't get the VPN back but I can still MOC with the guys in the office so must be a routing or link failure.
Edit 3: Ah. I can use one of the Americas nodes. Being employed by a large multi-national has its advantages :)
Don't know if its related but I can't connect to my personal email, facebook chat won't connect and can't connect via SSH to my server :-\
Edit : it looks like I can't access several websites as well.

It's either support trying to sort something or something else is failing, having connection issues myself.
Yep everything's gone to sh*t for me as well. Can't get to the smtp server or any IDNet addresses. IM clients disconnected. Can still get to most websites
Ditto here.
I'd been away from the computer for half an hour or so, when I returned I couldn't reach any websites or mail. But an audio stream from ClassicFM was still running happily :dunno:
But when I stopped the stream it wouldn't restart.
Re-booted the router and I'm fine again now.
Only able to access the forums here. :/ ???
[edit]
Ah, it came back a few seconds after the router reboot. Thanks IDNetters/IDNet. This kind of system failure is not really a problem for me, and I understand the fallover system is invaluable, so thanks that it just kind of "works". Even if it requires me to turn it off and back on again. ;)
Just spoke to Brian, if you are getting issues loading sites etc, just disconnect and reconnect.. Worked for me.

I thought about trying that, but decided that if it didn't work I'd reboot the router anyway so went straight for the jugular :P
All sorts of problems here, I'm waiting on a call back from support.

[EDIT] I do seem to have limited connectivity after reconnecting.
My connectivity seems OK but it's gone dog-slow in the last ten minutes or so.
Post here from Miriam might be something to do with -

Brian did say to me on the phone that the congestion is to do with a lot of people being put on the same pipe/link using the bandwidth.
So I'm expecting it to get worse as the peak time comes & until BT fix the problem with the other link.
I think your right Paul it could well be sluggish especially tonight until the other host link comes back on line.
