So they say at least.
After being a smidgen fed up I emailed general support yesterday and 30 minutes later received a call apologising for the way things are but telling me that around 20kBs is "expected" at the moment. I was also told they have some Quality of Service issues to sort out and once those are done (apparently in "a week or two") we should reach our aimed 32kBs. (The guy also made a point of the site saying UP TO but was at least nice enough to say he knew I should be hitting 32kBs)
Having worked in an isp myself I really can't understand what sort of issue would take 1-2 weeks to resolve (I mean I've moved whole companies to new network infrastructure in less than half that time).....and so I worry that they don't actually know "what" exactly is wrong.
I'm still hopeful they'll turn around though....perhaps foolishly so.
I'll admit I have no experience working for an ISP but here's why I think it'll take 1-2 weeks: DC News Server
And today mine is doing good again.
THIEF! Gimme it back
