MWEB Uncapped ADSL Feedback - Part 3

My ping was through the roof again last night, and line speed very unstable, moveing from 0.1mbps to 7.4. Connection to International gaming site just timed out. Tried from 16:30 - 21:30, stayed the same so lost interest. It has been like this for a few days now. Very very unstable.

Hi Drifter, I have tested your line and the signal strength is extremely low.

I have recreated your port, give it a few minutes then restart your router and test.

If this does not help then give em a trace route to a local and international site
 
My connection at home is a bit slow today. at work it's fine though. only international connections

Hi

What are you speeds like at the moment and what sort traffic are you moving?
 
anything from browsing or doing downloads on steam etc etc

Your line is checking okay on my side. What's your overall throughput? Calculate by adding all active downloads on your connection.

and now on my work line browsing seems very slow when having light workload on the network. We using under 1mbs on the line and my browsing is slow. did a speedtest and my speeds are running on 3mbs. So please check if there is something wrong. My internet at home and work feel sluggish. the worst it's been in a very long time

Is the experience the same on all devices or specific to yours? (referring to work and home)

yeah all devices. Also trying to get through to business sales and nobody answering. Tried many times today so oh well. This really another reason for me to leave this crap
 
yeah all devices

Please try isolating the connection to a single computer, includes disabling the wireless function in your modems web interface, before testing your speeds again.

Also trying to get through to business sales and nobody answering

Sorry about that, nelis. I've taken the liberty of escalating your request internally, so you should hear back within due course.

These results are not bad at all.

What is your general experience like at the moment?
 
Earlier bbc.co.uk also timed out. Main problem is that I have been having more issues with this game since going the capped account route.

Can you perhaps test with the 1GB capped package and let me know if you can replicate it.
