Man oh Man,

Woke up this morning ang thought here we go again with the same old crapy service but to my suprise and shock.......... it seems that someone has engaed Warp Factor one this morning.

Would like to know if it's my imagination or somthing real.

If it's real WBS don't change a thing !!!!
 
my connection hung around 8pm last night so I did a modem restart and ever since then I've also seen the "warp factor"

well what you are experiencing is no contention at the tower or network level. Due to the fact it is now the middle of the month and alot of people are capped and not buying more bandwidth and coupled with the fact that it is rather early in the morning... yea iburst is fast.

But thats never been ibursts problem, its always fast when not everyone is on at the same time. If you can make it through the whole day with these speeds then we can talk because in 4 hours or less you should notice a slow down, nothing hectic as it is the middl of the month but a slow down none the less.

plus i don't know why the cache had problems last night at like 8 but im sort of expecting downtime when they try fix that or more stalls... so yeah, enjoy it while it lasts
 
My connection also died last night at about 8pm. No difference in speed though. I normally get 1 mbit speeds.

I normally get 1mbit as well but there always seems to be major latency from the proxy. Much better today.
 
There was some unannounced changes/testing done last night... whatever it was, it seems to have improved international connection stability.

So, those with reasonable connectivity should find things "better". Those on the edge may not experience too much of a difference....

Edge of insanity??? :p
 
Well can also say that there is a major changes in speed today. Website a loading fast and dowloads ar up around 80kBps.
 
Do you guys think this is the fix promised for the 19th, ahead of schedule? That would be some kind of first. Any updates on wether this fixes the "capped death" problem?
 
insiders info was that major improvement should be monday (yesterday)

let's see
 
Yeah I heard the same as GRES. They tech team had planned to fix it by yesterday, while management had given them till the 19th.
 
This slow international thing hasn't affected me. I must be one of the tards that lives in a bubble, a geographically stable area, can see 50 towers, and has a base station in the back garden.

Maybe they have finally found a way to balance the tower contention ratios or something?
 
I'm so happy for you lucky people...

I've obviously been shifted to the disconnections club, 13 disconnections so far today. Actually every time I tried using iBurst :mad:

Speed not too bad @ 753 kbps, except that there's an initial lag of about 20 seconds before the page load (any page).

Definately an improvement :)
