Re: More connection issues AGAIN

Hi, sorry to hear it's slow. If the same issue is present when using both wifi and a wired connection to the router raise it to us at http://faults.plus.net and we'll look into it for you.

Re: More connection issues AGAIN

Hi englishrick
                    just read your thread on your issues,And geez that's a joke what they are doing with u My issue is CAN NOT log into any game server AT all this has only happened since yesterday, Last time I had this was with virgin adsl  throttling the life out of my connection this feels the same looks like I will be going else where for my net connection because after 3 engineer visits on my 10th router and numerous connection issues I have had enough,Iam mmo player I do not download anything aprt from game patches so this is the last straw, The real kick in the teeth for me my sister is on the same exchange which iam 1.2miles from and she has no lag or any online gaming issues and she is with BT so what does that tell you....Finnigan

Re: More connection issues AGAIN

Hi, Go here http://www.thinkbroadband.com/ping and set up a ping meter and check it over a 24hr period... as you can see from mine   my problem starts at about 4pm until midnight... Also check to see if your exchange has a problem here http://community.plus.net/exchange-information/

Re: More connection issues AGAIN

Ah, I can answer that one for you. Usually after a time has passed the previous speed estimate expires and disappears from that page. This is expected and so is nothing to be concerned about.
There is however a way to get a new estimate to be visible on the page (until that one disappears again later). The way is to start the change of product process (usually just selecting one option) until a speed estimate is quoted. Once you're at that stage you can simply cancel the process without any changes taking place. Then visiting the current speed page will show up the new estimate you've just done.
That's RPM to you!!

Hi Finnegan,
I can see you've raised a fault, thanks for that - it's sat with our speed faults team who'll get it tested and raised for you as soon as they can. Hope it's sorted quickly.

Re: More connection issues AGAIN

Hi Matt
              I have just read your reply,So no idea what is the problem with this connection stalled on me last night trying to navigate these forums to post replys screen shot is on here, Also i phoned in yesterday too and was told by a very unhelpfull chap telling me its congestion on the exchange iam on as it happens my sister is on that same exchange both of us were on star trek online at the same time when i lost connection and was kicked off could not get back on the game at all she was still on the same damn game star trek online so if its congestion why wasnt she affected as shes with BT if its a congestion issue i would have seen the affects long ago not just since monday happens same time every day not a SPEED issue it feels like my connection is being blocked from certain internet traffic from 5pm, THIS service is not fit for purpose and i had enough as from today i will be looking for another provider 2 years of this is not on......Finnigan

Re: More connection issues AGAIN

That's your choice, I'd recommend staying at least until the fault is resolved or it'll follow you to your new provider but up to you. I can understand that you're not happy and am sorry that a fault has manifested on your line, we will get it sorted for you if you give us a chance to.
