--> "I have a 8mbps line" the title was meant to read :)

I did search for a similar thread but didn't find anything, so if I missed it my apologies :)

On Friday my line kept dropping, phone WA when I got home cos I had no internet but it was connected and the guy told me my line had dropped like 6 times in the last hour. I eventually connected, played some MW2 for about an hour then it dies again and I just couldn't get it to connect again.

Saturday morning it was fine and I just carried on. Needed to check which account I was using this morning so I logged into my netgear and saw this:

So I decided to just make sure and started a download from MS:

Hope it stays as is :)

Anyone else have it? I only know cos I checked and then ran some tests (like speedtest and MS).

Well this means that there is an 8Mbps profile, you just need to get them to somehow switch you to it. Any good social engineers willing to do this for me for R100 ? :P
 
lol, well I didn't even bother trying to phone them, just left it and the next day it was working so was happy with that.
 
4mb/s down is fine for me I want 1mb/s upload speed!
 
lol restarted the router for some lucky 8meg and got the 4 meg :D
