Hi there,
As per the latest update on the ticket if you could run some more BT speed tests (http://speedtest.btwholesale.com) we'll be able to push back for resolution for you.

Re: Slow speeds in evening

Hmm, are you noticing that when you're actually downloading (rather than a test file, I mean)?

Re: Slow speeds in evening

OK here is an update
TBB snapshot graph:
TBB 18/8/2013
Attached is BTW speedtest, thinkbroadband test file download, newsgroup download from now and newsgroup download from 3am this morning
Even newgroups with 20 connections is having trouble this time of day - the settings are the same when it was hitting 8.4Mb
Matt - i've just done a Chrome download of Windows 7 SP1 which i know can max out 75Mb and was getting 550KB/sec
Is there anything else you'd like me to try?
Thanks

Re: Slow speeds in evening

No, thanks - that should be great for now. I'll let the agent looking after your ticket know that the speed tests have been done and link him to this thread as well, you should get an update soon.
