Title: Has the BT maintenance started??
Post by: Cookiemonster on Apr 28, 2008, 20:59:47
My service has been really slow tonight and with ping's in the low 100s..attached is my recent BT speedtest. With my throughput being so slow i can only think that it's the planned work. Is it possible they've started already?

I believe it starts at 1am. I think the best thing to do is wait until the work is completed tomorrow and see how things are. If things are no better, I urge to to contact support. If support aren't made aware, they can't do anything about it. :)

Yeah that's what I was going to do but I thought I'd post and see if anybody else was experiencing the same kind of problems. :)

BT Speedtester still won't complete for me - Socket permission error, but 4000K profile.

Speed and pings are normal here, as always, which would suggest BT again, but we'll see. :)
