Anyone notice that after the last PW reset that YT videos take much longer to load and then on my 10mbps account they auto kick to 720p ...

After manually setting 1080p they buffer for a few seconds and then play smooth ... but they are taking extraordinarily long to initially load

Nope. No cell data.

Only DSL username and password. No email or phone numbers.

Also no further leaks of the personal data that was promised.

Maybe this hack but the one in June exposed my name, surname, email address and phone number.
Username is a combination of first name and phone number ie [email protected]

Is CW down or have passwords been reset and I wasn't notified via email?

Passwords have been reset. I requested a new password early into this whole thing and had it smsed to me, but after the previous hack my password was changed without the new one being sent to me. So it could have happened to you this time.

I must say that I am somewhat confused after reading the email. I'm currently on a 100GB "Standard Business Capped". This product is not on the list in the email, but it looks like "Standard Business Capped + Midnight Express" will be called "SMME Capped" in the future. For my case, this email didn't really answer anything, but only created a bunch of questions:

1) What will my new product/price be?
2) Does this change mean that the midnight-till-6 data will go away?
3) Midnight-till-18 data is only mentioned for "Xtreme Home Capped", which I guess my new product won't be. Does that mean that I won't have midnight-till-18?
4) The email claims that the free data was previously midnight-till-8, which to the best of my knowledge was never the case. What's the story on this?

Despite being promised that those questions would be answered a week ago, most of them still remain unanswered and new ones have popped up.

I'm *GUESSING* that I'll be bumped to a 150GB SMME account for the same price as I'm paying now, but I'd like to get confirmation of this *before* I get sent next month's invoice from Crystal Web.

Even if my guess is right, it opens up this new question:

Also, it seems that what will be my new product will be uncapped from 18 till 8. Will I suffer any degradation of my service during this interval compared to my current business standard capped performance?

I have had the opportunity to test these for the last couple of months. I can honestly say that even my wife loves our Wi-Fi! (Tough crowd to please...)

Or scrap that. Is the CW news server (think it is/was via Nextgennews) still available? Can't seem to find anything on their website about it.

News server is still available.

Edit: Trying to figure out how it works - seems to be nothing there. But it is available
