Mind this could be a teleco/ISP offering FTTP  (fiber to the pavement) rather than to the premises

Do you mean VM?

[#2]

if it is VM then the police only need to use VM's customer list to hunt the vandal down 
Mind if they did a line up of all the customers not happy with there service it would take a football pitch sized room to do the identity parade in

Nice one guys
Like the add states "is this the mother of all Broadband?"

@ASBO DOG
Line stats comparison from Thomson 585v7 (supplied by PlusNet) and NETGEAR DG834GT.
Each taken over a 24 hour period.
I think I'll stick with the Netgear for now keeping the 585v7 as a backup!

[#5]

if you havent grabed a new ip address or your using a static one i would surrgest gettin the rubber out on the routerstats capture
what chip is in the NETGEAR DG834GT?

[#6]

Don't worry! I Rebooted the NETGEAR after I grabbed that screen shot!!! I hope your not on a static IP mate re; Reply #35
The NETGEAR DG834GT uses the Broadcom BCM6348, the same as your DG834Gv4 I believe, http://www.speedguide.net/broadband-view.php?hw=207
As far as I am aware the 585v7 apparently uses the newer but slightly lower spec Broadcom BCM6338.
edit; added link

doh. nah i grabbed a new ip since then.
the rubber must of ran out after i scrubbed the first ip of that post

LOL, I just had an email from Virgin Media asking me to give feedback!
this was my feedback to them,

To be quite blunt the traffic management on your ADSL products is diabolical, I am NOT a heavy user, I very rarely got speeds above 3000kbps with a sync rate of 8128k and line profile of 7150 and the latency was nothing short of shocking made worse by the fact that Virgin Media are unwilling to have interleaving turned off when requested by the customer. Since my migration to PlusNet Value, I have very, very rarely experienced speeds lower than 6000kbps and my latency has been fantastic!

I  wonder if Sir Branson well get to read that!

[#9]

They will just chuck that feedback in the pile of BTw problem. even tho PN can give gd speeds and latency over the same suppiler.
VM use the same rediculous managment on there cable product but even i was shocked when i read the traffic mangment  on there BTw product
In my opion they have that over managment on the adsl product in my opion to reduce there costs to BTw. not to protect all customers speeds

[#10]

Best MAX result on my line ever!

Beat that VM!!!!
