Don't know about the others from our area but it's looking better here now (going at full speed and real world downloads performing well. Very slightly bumpy on Thinkbroadband's single thread test), I don't know if they got something done early. Of course, it's after midnight, so it would've been speeding up anyway - the big test will be tomorrow evening and the true peak which I heard from a PN employee on TBB is usually Monday+Tuesday evening.
Thanks for keeping us up to date. As much shouting as there is in here, on personal experience it's progressed where other ISPs would've been doing an IT Crowd still ("have you turned it off and on again / are you sure it's plugged in")
Hopefully you can sort Rick out too for everyone's sake

sharktech - I'm fairly new to the area, so I'm not sure where the "newchapel estate" is. I'm around ST7 if that gives you any indication...

Just had confirmation that my connection is on a "hot virtual path" (i did ask if they need more fans or better aircon lol) and that it needs moving to stop the speed issues, Give Faults a ring and they should sort you out aswell.
It should take 24-48 hours to be sorted and i will update you all once i've confirmed its done.
Fingers Crossed
Cheers

Although it looks from the test results posted above that I am "only" getting a 70% reduction in speed from 13mb/s to 4mb/s, the actual effect is MUCH worse, becasue the packet loss is causing applications to misbehave
For example - the website move I did this week. The FTP download took around 5 hours spread over 2 evenings. this was becasue filezilla was stalling and timing out after every 2 to 3 files. I repeated the same download this morning as a test, and it took 7 minutes. The result of this is that the website move took two full evenings, instead of about 30 minutes.

Is that also likely to apply to ADSL2+ on the Alsager exchange?
And Dave, can you chase up for an ETA on Alsager/Kidsgrove increased capacity. Thanks.

So far so good in Ulverston - Friday evening is usually bad
usual speed 47-50
http://www.thinkbroadband.com/speedtest/results.html?id=139119608628305819497
A tiny bit wobbly on the x1 but far from bad. looking great with x5.
Couple of spikes but nothing that looks ugly so far. First try at the ping graph, actually.
We do have an error-prone line for some reason, the line's capable of 62 but with all the errors it put some heavy interleaving on soon after we got it, hence we get 47-50.
Cautiously optimistic. Well, definitely - it would've been down to 2mbps this time last week

Is your speed fluctuating a lot like mine? Do a few tests about five minutes apart and compare the speeds , when i do it one reads 12 mbps next one is 2 ect total cr*p!
